Matlab to C or C++

Question

I am working on an image processing project using Matlab. We should run our program (intended to be an application) on a cell phone.We were then asked to convert our code in

Answer 1

I also used the MATLAB Coder to convert some functions consisting of a few hundred lines of MATLAB into C. This included using MATLAB's eigenvalue solver and matrix inversion functions.

Although Coder was able to produce C code (which theoretically was identical), it was very convoluted, bloated, impossible to decipher, and appeared to be extremely inefficient. It literally created about 10x as many lines of code as it should have needed. I ended up converting it all by hand so that I would actually be able to comprehend the C code later and make further changes/updates. This task however, can be very tedious/dangerous, as the array indexing in Matlab is 1-based and in C it's 0-based. You're likely to add bugs into the code, as I experienced. you'll also have to convert any vector/matrix arithmetic into loops that handle scalars (or use some type of C matrix algebra package)
