Quand on met au point un algorithme, mon opinion est que bien
souvent il sera plus facile de le faire avec un logiciel adapte
au calcul numerique en general que de prendre un logiciel de
statistique. Quitte ensuite a le traduire dans un autre language.
C'est pourquoi je trouve matlab bien commode (pour ce que j'ai a
faire).  En plus, la simplicite du langage permet de pouvoir
relire aisement un programme ecrit un an auparavant, ou de le
transmettre a un collegue qui voudrait le modifier ou le comprendre.
Matlab est achete ces jours-ci par le centre de calcul de Toulouse.
Matlab et Maple s'allient pour ne plus developper des
extensions de leurs produits respectifs de facon concurentielle.
Le langage Matlab peut etre traduit par un programme de traduction
en C, compile, et reutilise alors sous forme de commandes matlab
(encore +rapides ainsi a l'execution). 
 Je viens de recevoir le message ci-apres, et ma question est:
Quelqu'un aurait-il une pratique de Xmath et de matlab et un avis
comparatif sur les 2 langages?

Xmath from Integrated Systems Inc. is now available on the Internet via
FTP.
If you would like to download Xmath to view the Xmath Interactive demo, do
the following:
	From the UNIX/Shell environment, type:
	ftp isi.com  (if the host is unknown, try ftp 192.73.222.1)
	When asked for name/user, type:
	anonymous
	When asked for the password, simply type your e-mail address.
Once your e-mail address is accepted, and if the maximum number of ftp
clients has not
been exceeded, the connection will be made and a list of instructions will
appear.
Simply follow that list of instructions to transfer a copy of Xmath to your
system.
Xmath is an interactive mathematics, scripting, and graphics environment
for X Window
workstations.  It has features which represent a significant improvement on
matlab-type
software tools, including:
	- Object-oriented scripting language.
	- "Point-and-click" color graphics.
	- Visual debugging tool.
	- LNX and C-callable libraries.
	- Programmable MOTIF GUI layer.
