- Click the convert button.
- The resulting CoffeeScript code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Matlab to CoffeeScript using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Matlab and CoffeeScript
Characteristic | Matlab | CoffeeScript |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Matlab uses a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on mathematical operations and matrix manipulation. | CoffeeScript uses a more concise and expressive syntax that compiles into JavaScript. |
Paradigm | Matlab is primarily a procedural language with support for object-oriented programming. | CoffeeScript is a functional programming language that also supports object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Matlab is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | CoffeeScript is also dynamically typed. |
Performance | Matlab is optimized for numerical computations and has good performance in this area. | CoffeeScript's performance depends on the underlying JavaScript engine. |
Libraries and frameworks | Matlab has a wide range of built-in libraries and toolboxes for various scientific and engineering applications. | CoffeeScript leverages the existing JavaScript ecosystem and can use any JavaScript library or framework. |
Community and support | Matlab has a large and active community with extensive documentation and support resources. | CoffeeScript has a smaller community compared to other languages, but still has active support and resources available. |
Learning curve | Matlab has a relatively low learning curve, especially for users with a background in mathematics or engineering. | CoffeeScript has a moderate learning curve, especially for users familiar with JavaScript. |
