How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Matlab to Ruby in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Matlab code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Ruby code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Matlab to Ruby 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.
Matlab
Ruby
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.
Matlab
Ruby
Key differences between Matlab and Ruby
Characteristic | Matlab | Ruby |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Matlab uses a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on matrix operations and numerical computations. | Ruby has a more flexible and expressive syntax, with a focus on readability and ease of use. |
Paradigm | Matlab is primarily a procedural language, but also supports object-oriented programming. | Ruby is a dynamic, object-oriented language that supports multiple programming paradigms, including functional programming. |
Typing | Matlab is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | Ruby is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. |
Performance | Matlab is optimized for numerical computations and can be very fast for these types of operations. | Ruby is not optimized for numerical computations and can be slower than other languages for these types of operations. |
Libraries and frameworks | Matlab has a large library of built-in functions and toolboxes for numerical computations, signal processing, and more. | Ruby has a large and active community that has developed many libraries and frameworks for web development, testing, and more. |
Community and support | Matlab has a smaller community than some other languages, but there are still many resources available for learning and support. | Ruby has a large and active community that provides many resources for learning and support. |
Learning curve | Matlab has a relatively steep learning curve, especially for those who are not familiar with matrix operations and numerical computations. | Ruby has a relatively gentle learning curve, with a focus on readability and ease of use. |
