From what I remember, which is not much as I do not have a good memory,
NASA use matlab for changing inflight handling characteristics of there
aircraft which they use for astronaut training, I found matlab a bit clunky
to use, but t takes all the hard work out of calculus, heaps of people use
it for all manner of scientific applications, but its that long since I used
it I have forgotten how to make it go.
