Really makes you think.

even C has a standard complex number library lmao

surf() inside a loop using tic/toc to measure draw time and keep a consistent re-draw time.

Billy-bob, plz

There are probably libraries you can import into Java to get such functionality. There are better options though.

Java doesn't even let you use the plus sign to add bignums.

matlab is great for what it was made to do
it was made by engineers for doing numerical computing, linear algebra etc that they need in their field

python can do the same with matplotlib and numpy these days
and python is a much more general language

matlab is limited to scientific programming

Try to implement something you would usually do in netbeans or JavaFX in matlab. Why don't you try to set up a TCP server?

go ahead. I wish a nigga would.

But java is retarded, nobody is defending it here. But comparing it to matlab is just silly.

In my experience, by far the worst environment to program in. For reference, I've used C, C++, C#, VB.NET, PoSh, Java, Racket, Haskell, Prolog, all in various IDEs. Nothing I hated like MATLAB.

I wonder if Octave or SciPy are any better.
