Pros/Cons
Pros
- Have been loving the app as it supports command line inputs and can be run on any device. Excellent simulation quality.
- The most powerful feature of MATLAB is the help documentation, users can learn and apply methods from help. Definitions of functions are very clear.
- Very strong and capable integrations with hardware, especially for student platforms like Arduino. Help is really helpful and its features are incremental through out the IDE and non intrusive.
Cons
- Nevertheless, it is sometimes hard to get MATLAB to do exactly what you need, due to missing features or a confusing programming interface.
- The saving of files can be annoying sometimes and slow, and often the software crashes due to a bug, which is annoying.
- Sometimes it can be a pain manuevering around your equation if you want to make changes. I find the same problem with MathCAD.
Pros
- I can define as fantastic due the flexibility and how easy is to handle, additional the graphical part is helpful to prepare report and make better business decisions.
- Minitab is one of the best statistical softwares. It's not the best but easiest and reliable.
- Very impressed with how easy it allowss students to have a good data analysis foundation.
Cons
- Some concepts to perform regression and other analysis of the options make me confuse.
- If you are not an expert in statistics it will be really hard to navigate through the software.
- Visuals are quite primitive. There is no estetical way to looking at it.
