How common out there is matlab? Do you guys have student
copies or other? With matlab we can write the code in scripts
and plug in C modules as necessary, in fact if we had some
fortran code we could plug those in. A lotta good rocket
science code is still in fortran and it still works just fine.

But all this would be a waste of effort if those who want to
play this game dont have matlab. For all its disadvantages,
Microsloth excel is a package that is already owned by
pretty much everyone who cares about that sorta thing. spike
