⚫ | RLaB is an interactive, interpreted scientific programming environment which provides fast prototyping and program development. RLaB is not a clone of languages such as those used by tools like [[MATLAB]] or Matrix-X/Xmath. However, as RLaB focuses on creating a good experimental environment (or laboratory) in which to do matrix math, it can be called ``Matlab-like''; since the programming language possesses similar operators and concepts. |

⚫ | RLaB does not try to be a Matlab clone. Instead, it borrows what I believe are the best features of the Matlab language and provides improved language syntax and semantics. The syntax has been improved to allow users more expression and reduce ambiguities. The variable scoping rules have been improved to facilitate creation of larger programs and program libraries. |

The project rlabplus is its successor for 32- and 64-bit linux operating systems. It incorporates a number of updated and new solvers, functions and procedures. E.g., it includes the Gnu Scientific Library (GSL) in its entirety. It integrates data-visualization capabilities using the plotting packages pgplot, Gnuplot or xmgr. |

It supports data-export to different formats, e.g., openoffice.org or HDF5. |
|||
It can also communicate through serial port or GPIB interfaces. |

RLaB was created by Ian Searle and collaborators. |

rlabplus is being actively developed by Marijan Kostrun. |
