If we’re talking real engineering (like professional accredited engineering and not programmers calling themselves engineers) you couldn’t be more wrong. It isn’t used in deployment necessarily but for modeling and analysis it has no equal.
I mean, I agree with you, I’d never pay for a Matlab license for myself if I ever decide to go the private engineering consultant route. Just sharing my experience that yes, it’s used in the professional world.
So many come out of school with Matlab experience. I get them started with python. They brush me off. Then the license server goes down. Welcome to open source grasshopper! I should make a meme about this and put on my door…
Matlab sucks ass no real engineers use it, only college kids.

I’ve had more than one job where Matlab was used extensively, guess my coworkers and I aren’t real engineers.
I’d rather use something else, but if it’s what the group already uses, fine, I’ll do it
Also, I don’t do a ton of true programming on it. It’s a fancy calculator, and occasionally I make a GUI app with it
What a waste of money when Python is free

It’s just so weird to me. I’ve worked at a few big companies and Matlab was just kind of out of the question at any of them. It was Excel or Python
octave not a thing anymore?
