MATLAB on Athena Updated to 7.9

10/07/2009

MATLAB 7.9 (also called R2009b) has been installed on Athena. Many of the Toolboxes have been updated (use MATLAB "ver"
command for versions). As before, the lpsolve linear programming solver has been added to the locker (Linux only).

Release notes are available in the internal help system, or at the MathWorks web site (see Release Notes and Latest Features). To run it now:

       add matlab
       matlab -ver 7.9

It will not be made the default version until after the end of the current semester.

The MATLAB Compiler is partly broken on Suns; it only works if you run it within the MATLAB environment (from the MATLAB prompt), and not from the Athena prompt.
