Why C is faster than Matlab?

[sgr]

I want to know the main reason for "c" programming that run faster than "matlab", especificley for iterative and recursive algorithms which use "for loops"?

Hi
1- C is near assembly
2- matlab is written in C
3- matlab is script
and ...

mc² compiler© is fastest!

Hi Sir Polymath,

Is there an m c² compiler? If there is, can you give me links about this?

thanks in advance

I am sure you know
Einstein was the compiler of E=mc²

sgr, c is very low level. It just does "simple" things. Matlab has to read, understand and execute in a non-optimized and complex environment. Each iteration in matlab is doing a lot more than executing your code.

I believe we're still light years away from an mc² compiler.

Well you are almost right .... but there is light at the end of the tunnel.

With the repeatability question regarding the uncertainty principle being unresolved at present - in short -
This means that the mc² compiler© is unable to produce the same object twice from the same source code.
This as you might imagine has caused me more than a few problems in my target application.

The Vendor assures me they are working on a regressive convergent version of the mc² compiler©, named 'Einstein',
that given time will produce a useable object.
However they have not set any time scale on this development.
