MATLAB (Matrix Laboratory) is a high-level programming language and environment specifically designed for numerical computation and data analysis. It is widely used in academia and industry for tasks such as data analysis, algorithm development, and simulation. Simulink, on the other hand, is a graphical modeling and simulation environment that allows users to create and simulate dynamic systems. It is an extension of MATLAB and provides a user-friendly interface for building and simulating complex systems. Use your library portal or inter‑library loan
