What's the difference between MatLab and Labview?

[deadeye]

whats the difference between these two? can anyone explain it?thanks

matlab vs labview

not too much..both r simulation softwares....
But Matlab is more rich in case of toolboxes...

 

[aomeen]

labview vs simulink

Completely different !!!

MATLAB is a very powerful mathematical engine with wide range of toolboxes and other tools, e.g SIMULINK. It can be used for nearly everything "on system level"

Check : https://www.mathworks.com/

LABVIEW is a very powerful tool mainly used for testing and DAS "Data Acquisition systems"

Check: https://www.ni.com/labview/

simulink vs labview

so which is much more easier to use use..and best for projects?

difference between matlab and labview

Both are user friendly..you can use anyone of them depending on how much u can pay??

meanwhile I won't agree with Aomeen because Labview is also useful in signal processing and infact you can do system level simulation for Backfin or other Analog devices DSP processor through Labview.

on the other hand u can use Matlab for data acquistion purpose also...

Added after 19 minutes:

i m attaching one presentation on Matlab...
i hope it will help u..

matlab vs

Both of them started in a completely different way.
Matlab WAS essentially a tool for matrix calculation.
Labview was essentially a tool for instrumentation
control. However, with the years both are being
getting closer, Matlab to allow control and data
adquisition, and Labview to allow more complex
math calculations.

However, Matlab still better regarding big matrixes
and Labview still better than Matlab at creating
easier applications for instrumentation.

matlab vs. labview

thanks guys..i think i'll prefer LabView...

labview matlab

trust me ..
go for matlab instead of labview..
Labview takes very less time to develop..
Matlab takes just a little bit more than labview..but it is still powerfull
matlab gives you enough tweaks to give you what you want whereas in labview you can do it only if you are a indepth c programmer

differnce between matlab and labview

i have a question. can i use labview to simulate FDTD?
i think it can't be used. but i just wanna ask those who know labview well coz i used labview only used labview for a short period of time and i really don't know its capabilities.tnx

labview vs. matlab

I think they are two different software!

matlab versus labview

which performance are better?

What do you think then of the NI LAbVIEW CVI compiler? There you can the way you want to go...

LabVIEW contains MAthScript where you can use the Matlab syntax... ex for simulating PID controllers,...

If I was yours I go for LabVIEW!

difference between labview and matlab

One target for simulation, the other target fast prototype and measurement.

matlab simulink vs labview

no comparison can be made
, but both are powerful
, and one is just new one !

i think !

matlab in labview

Matlab is for DSP, Communication analysis,mathematics modeling...

Labview is to make Test Engineering easy.

Matlab can now do test Engineering (GPIB tool Box etc...) and Labview can
now do more analysis.

Matlab is like C programming but more user friendly. Labview is a graphical
way of programming. It seems easy (I like line coding be cause it gives you
more control). Labview has been adding many web options so there is a lot
of possibilities with Labview.

So I would say you should think about what you will need to do and then make
a decision of which to be come an expert at. If you are going to be a Test Engineer
Labview will be mandatory.

matlab labview interface

i have a question. can i use labview to simulate FDTD?
i think it can't be used. but i just wanna ask those who know labview well coz i used labview only used labview for a short period of time and i really don't know its capabilities.tnx

Strictly speaking, it's probably possible to implement FDTD in LabView, but it would also probably take a lot more programming time and execute much slower than if you implemented it in Matlab.

 

[zawminoo]

labview and matlab

I think that it is more suitable to use MATLAB for education and research and LABVIEW for real time industrial control.

 

[genci]

matlab and labview

Labview is best to adquisition Data
Matlab is good to manipulate Data from Labview.

In Matlab there is Simulink

 

[nadzri]

different between labview & matlab

i like matlab better

 

[adeel.sid]

lab view vs matlab

In matlab ,NO real time data processing
Matlab 1st store,then process.
But labview can perform real time data processing
hence labview is good from this respect.
But
I refer you to work 1st on matlab as it is more user friendly.
HELP file of matlab can teach u a lot.
