MATLAB for Python programmers

Question

I\'ve used MATLAB on and off before, but I need to develop a good understanding of it now, and the language I\'m most familiar with is Python. Care to describe a MATLAB language

Answer 1

You can't do indexing on function result directly;

from numpy import *
sin(array(range(10))*pi/10)[3]

It doesn't work in MATLAB; you need to save the result first:

x = sin(0:pi/10:pi)
x(3)

This is from Jonas's tutorial.
