Applications of MATLAB as a programming language.

Is MATLAB object oriented? Where is it used?

You might be more interested in Octave, which is a GNU licensed free Matlab equivalent. Matlab is a proprietary software and might be expensive to buy "just to try it" ;) https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/ Compatibility ussues between the two are really minor and may be completely ignored in most cases: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Octave#MATLAB_compatibility

MATLAB focuses on computation and visualization, mostly used within fields closely related to mathematics. You can do much - From plotting graphs, vectors, to image processing. A brief lookup shows that MATLAB is capable of OOP. I might actually try it if it doesn't require a license and isn't 10+GB in size. >.>

MATLAB is a powerful tool in numerical processes and also in engineering related topics. I used it frequently during my studies. However, as Hatsy Rei said, it is quite expensive...

You can also look at the mathworks homepage and have a look at the tutorial. https://matlabacademy.mathworks.com/?s_tid=acb_tut
