My knowledge of Matlab is freezed as of 2017, when I abandoned
Matlab and embraced Scilab, so might be some of my comments are
outdated <br>
<br>
<font face="Courier New">It is free, open source software<br>
<br>
No licenses that eventually expire<br>
<br>
Strings are better handled. In Matlab you can check for equality
only if their lengths are the same since they are just vectors of
codes. In Scilab a string is a true type for supporting many
operations in a more intuitive way.<br>
<br>
Variable names support extended characters<br>
<br>
You can extract components from the result of any function: y =
fft(x)(1:5)<br>
<br>
The same applies to any field of structure<br>
<br>
It is mostly compatible with Matlab and you can automatically
convert Matlab scripts to Scilab scripts, which allows to reuse
Matlab code (it is not perfect and manual correction is needed)<br>
<br>
Insanely powerful control of graphics.<br>
<br>
Impressive community to help with any doubts.<br>
<br>
