    Why is Matlab described as closed source if you can read the source? Is closed just referring to the compiled C code — or something deeper?https://twitter.com/cMadan/status/841944151755264000 …

    yeah, base math is compiled c code, 'edit' will still show you the help text, but not code. But say 'edit ttest' and...code appears pic.twitter.com/AdfLxxKNgk

        not all code is readable like this. Also, even though you can read some code, the license does not allow you to change/reuse it.

        @cMadan this is an important point actually — so you mean it's usually spaghetti?

        no, I mean MATLAB does not allow you to read it. Happens on a lot of the toolboxes.

        aha so I guess mostly the code is hidden then and not visible like above...

        ...I haven't had that issue, but I also haven't been thorough in testing which functions are viewable

        Even if you can read it, that is only useful for auditing the code, since the license doesn't allow you do do anything else

        MATLAB 2012 had a bug where it would allocate memory and never free it when you passed matrix slices as function arguments

        You have to pay a licence fee for commercial usage. The source is not available to amended. Matlab is proprietary. Not a problem.

        Matlab wants to be proprietary, that is their business model, people take it or leave it. Many leave it and use a Python stack.

        This confusion is why some people (esp. RMS camp) prefer the term "free software", even though it has its own ambiguity.
