How to use this tool?

This free online converter lets you convert code from Matlab to Swift in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -

  1. Type or paste your Matlab code in the input box.
  2. Click the convert button.
  3. The resulting Swift code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.

Examples

The following are examples of code conversion from Matlab to Swift 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 Swift

CharacteristicMatlabSwift
SyntaxMatlab uses a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on matrix operations and mathematical computations.Swift uses a modern and concise syntax that is easy to read and write, with a focus on safety and performance.
ParadigmMatlab is primarily a procedural language, but it also supports object-oriented programming.Swift is a multi-paradigm language that supports both procedural and object-oriented programming, as well as functional programming.
TypingMatlab is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime.Swift is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time.
PerformanceMatlab is optimized for numerical computations and has good performance for such tasks.Swift is a high-performance language that is designed to be fast and efficient.
Libraries and frameworksMatlab has a wide range of built-in libraries and toolboxes for various scientific and engineering applications.Swift has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, with a focus on mobile app development.
Community and supportMatlab has a large and active community, with extensive documentation and support resources.Swift has a growing community, with active forums and resources provided by Apple.
Learning curveMatlab has a relatively low learning curve, especially for users with a background in mathematics or engineering.Swift has a moderate learning curve, with a strong emphasis on modern programming concepts and best practices.
