@aidanhorner I think I used Matlab for the first time at UCL after having used Python/C/Prolog for 3 yrs. No freedom made me really upset.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@aidanhorner@o_guest if you already know one language it's fairly easy to learn another. Mostly syntax.1 reply 1 retweet 1 like -

@synapticlee@aidanhorner 100% true for declarative languages. Not if you have to learn e.g., Prolog. Not really relevant to neurosci ofc.

@synapticlee@aidanhorner Oops, realised I screwed that up. Not true for declarative, true for imperative. Most people use imperative.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@wandedob@synapticlee@aidanhorner Understandable, esp since I just don't think Matlab is as transferable as C. Doesn't even start from 0!1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@o_guest@synapticlee@aidanhorner I also prefer C, but like Matlab because it is quick to make something that works1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
@wandedob @synapticlee @aidanhorner True, but also true in Python and other sexy new languages esp. ones designed for prototyping.
