For some time now, this has been bugging me - so I thought to gather some more feedback/information/opinions on this.
What would you classify Recursion? As a loop or as a vectorized section of code?
For context, this query occured to me while creating Cody problems involving strict (so to speak) vectorization - (Everyone is more than welcome to check my recent Cody questions).
To make problems interesting and/or difficult, I (and other posters) ban functions and functionalities - such as for loops, while loops, if-else statements, arrayfun() and the rest of the fun() family functions. However, some of the solutions including the reference solution I came up with for my latest problem, contained recursion.
I am rather divided on how to categorize it. What do you think?
Have you ever been enrolled in a course that uses an LMS and there is an assignment that invovles posting a question to, or answering a question in, a discussion group? This discussion group is meant to simulate that experience.
The functionality would allow report generation straight from live scripts that could be shared without exposing the code. This could be useful for cases where the recipient of the report only cares about the results and not the code details, or when the methodology is part of a company know how, e.g. Engineering services companies.
In order for it to be practical for use it would also require that variable values could be inserted into the text blocks, e.g. #var_name# would insert the value of the variable "var_name" and possibly selecting which code blocks to be hidden.
For the www, uk, and in domains,a generative search answer is available for Help Center searches. Please let us know if you get good or bad results for your searches. Some have pointed out that it is not available in non-english domains. You can switch your country setting to try it out. You can also ask questions in different languages and ask for the response in a different language. I get better results when I ask more specific queries. How is it working for you?
Modern engineering requires both robust hardware and powerful simulation tools. MATLAB and Simulink are widely used for data analysis, control design, and embedded system development. At the same time, Kasuo offers a wide range of components—from sensors and connectors to circuit protection devices—that engineers rely on to build real-world systems.
By combining these tools, developers can bridge the gap between simulation and implementation, ensuring their designs are reliable and ready for deployment.
Example Use Case: Sensor Data Acquisition and Processing
- Kasuo Hardware Setup
- Select a Kasuo sensor (e.g., temperature, microphone, or motion sensor).
- Connect it to a DAQ or microcontroller board for data collection.
- Data Acquisition in MATLAB
- Use MATLAB’s Data Acquisition Toolbox to stream sensor data directly.
- Example snippet:
s = daq("ni");
addinput(s,
"Dev1", "ai0", "Voltage");
data = read(s, seconds(
5), "OutputFormat", "Matrix");
plot(data);
- Signal Processing with Simulink
- Build a Simulink model to filter noise, detect anomalies, or design control logic.
- Simulink enables real-time visualization and iterative tuning.
- Validation & Protection Simulation
- Add Kasuo’s circuit protection components (e.g., TVS diodes, surge suppressors) in the physical design.
- Use Simulink to simulate stress conditions, validating system robustness before hardware testing.
Benefits of the Workflow
- Faster prototyping with MATLAB & Simulink.
- Greater reliability by incorporating Kasuo protection devices.
- Seamless transition from model to hardware implementation.
Conclusion
Kasuo’s electronic components provide the hardware foundation for many embedded and signal processing applications. When combined with MATLAB and Simulink, engineers can design, simulate, and validate systems more efficiently—reducing risks and development time.
With AI agents dev coding on other languages has become so easy.
Im waiting for matlab to build something like warp but for matlab.
I know they have the current ai but with all respect it's rubbish compared to vibe coding tools in others sectors.
Matlab leads AI so it really should be leading this space.
Hello MATLAB Central community,
My name is Yann. And I love MATLAB. I also love Python ... 🐍 (I know, not the place for that).
I recently decided to go down the rabbit hole of AI. So I started benchmarking deep learning frameworks on basic examples. Here is a recording of my experiment:
Happy to engage in the debate. What do you think?
When you compare MATLAB Plot Gallery with matplotlib gallery, you can see that matplotlib gallery contains a lot of nice graphs which are easy to create in MATLAB but not listed in MATLAB Plot Gallery.
For example, "Data Distribution Plots" section in the MATLAB Plot Gallery includes example for pie function instead of examples for piechart and donutchart functions, etc.
mlapp being a binary is a pain point for source control. It means that you either have to:
- have hooks in your source control system to zip/unzip a mlapp. However, The Mathworks have informed users not to rely on this as the mlapp format may change.
- do all your source control in MATLAB. This is non standard behaviour. Source code and source control should be independent of each other. Web front-ends to source control systems, 3rd party source control apps, CI/CD systems and much more are extremely limited in what they can do with mlapps.
I wish an mlapp could just be a directory full of the required text/other files.
Requested to post this here from reddit.
There is no call to rescan audio devices in audioPlayerRecorder, even though PortAudio has such a call. I have a measurement environment that takes a long time to initialise. If I forget to plug in my audio device, I have to do it all over again...

Hey cody fellows :-) !
I recently created two problem groups, but as you can see I struggle to set their cover images :
What is weird given :
- I already did it successfully twice in the past for my previous groups ;
- If you take one problem specifically, Problem 60984. Mesh the icosahedron for instance, you can normally see the icon of the cover image in the top right hand corner, can't you ?
- I always manage to set cover images to my contributions (mostly in the filexchange).
I already tried several image formats, included .png 4/3 ratio, but still the cover images don't set.
Could you please help me to correctly set my cover images ?
Thank you.

Nice to have - function output argument provide code assist when said function is called
This is a feature which doesn't apear to currently exist, but I think alot of matlab users would like, particularly ones who write alot of custom classes.
Imagine i have a custom class with some properties:
classdef CustomClass < handle
properties
name (1,1) string = "default name"
varOne (1,1) double = 0
end
methods
function obj = CustomClass(name,varOne)
obj.name = name;
obj.VarOne = varOne;
end
end
end
Then imagine I have a function which returns one of these custom class objects:
function [obj] = Calculation(Var1,Var2,name)
arguments (Input)
Var1 (1,1) double
Var2 (1,1) double
end
arguments (Output)
obj (1,1) CustomClass
end
results = Var1 + Var2;
obj = CustomClass(name,result);
end
With this class and this function which returns one of these class objects, I would like the fact that I provided "(1,1) CustomClass" in the output arguemnts block of function "Calculation(Var1,Var2,name)" to trigger code assist automaticaly show me, when writing code that the retuned value from this funciton has properties "name" and "varOne" in the object.
For istance, if I write the following code with this function and the class in the Matlab search path
testObj = Calculation(1,1,"test");
testObj.varOne = 10; %the property "varOne" doesn't apear in code assist when writing this line of code
I would like that the fact function "Calcuation(Var1,Var2,name) has the output arguments block enforcing that this function must return an object of "CustomClass" to make code assist recognise that "testObj" is a "CustomClass" object, just as if testObj was an input argument to another function which had an input argument requiring that "testObj" was a "CustomClass" object.
Maybe this is a feature that may be added to matlab in future releases? (please and thank you LOL)

Hi everyone,
Please check out our new book "Generative AI for Trading and Asset Management".
GenAI is usually associated with large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, or with image generation tools like MidJourney, essentially, machines that can learn from text or images and generate text or images. But in reality, these models can learn from many different types of data. In particular, they can learn from time series of asset returns, which is perhaps the most relevant for asset managers.
In our book (amazon.com link), we explore both the practical applications and the fundamental principles of GenAI, with a special focus on how these technologies apply to trading and asset management.
The book is divided into two broad parts:
Part 1 is written by Ernie Chan, noted author of Quantitative Trading, Algorithmic Trading, and Machine Trading. It starts with no-code applications of GenAI for traders and asset managers with little or no coding experience. After that, it takes readers on a whirlwind tour of machine learning techniques commonly used in finance.
Part 2, written by Hamlet, covers the fundamentals and technical details of GenAI, from modeling to efficient inference. This part is for those who want to understand the inner workings of these models and how to adapt them to their own custom data and applications. It’s for anyone who wants to go beyond the high-level use cases, get their hands dirty, and apply, and eventually improve these models in real-world practical applications.
Readers can start with whichever part they want to explore and learn from.
