The answer is basically the same as for the comparison I made of R to SPSS and SAS last week: R was developed by famous statisticians, so its statistical methodology is correct and modern. MATLAB was developed by a numerical analyst. So, R would be better for statistics while MATLAB would be better for stuff like solving differential equations.
