Exactly. And employers never want to buy enough seats. There is always someone using it. Matplotlib will make the same MATLAB graphics. I am a MATLAB ninja and my Python sucks, but MATLAB can eat a dick for the aforementioned reasons.

I suspect if you need Simulink and other special features, Octave and Scilab might not have all that.

Also, if you can code in Python, the matplotlib library can get MATLAB graphics for you. I have decided to learn Python since it costs $0 and employers never want to buy enough MATLAB licenses.

Thank you! Ffs, I was just sitting here thinking, I am not paying ticketmaster a damn dime, even if I have to miss my childhood heroes before they die. People whore themselves out and it fucks all of society constantly. Can’t watch videos because of content monopoly, can’t see a concert without getting fucked on exorbitant fees, can’t go to the hospital because holy fuck, can’t go to school without crippling debt, can’t watch TV without supporting terrorists, etc. Like bloody hell the corpos have monopolized and ruined everything. They can go to hell. I’ll play my shitty guitar, sing to myself, do home surgery, and go outside or stare at a wall. Fuck this shit!
