      Oh it shouldn’t, seeing as how it’s a scripting language and not actually for programming lol

        It doesn’t have to be

        MATLAB can ruin all sorts of coding experiences, programming included

          I startled my dogs laughing at that last bit.

          Last time I dealt with Matlab much was like fifteen years ago when I was helping some people using it for quick interpretation of data. We just kept finding bugs that caused calculation errors (which they fixed pretty quickly TBF) and it was so much slower than any other general programming language we tried. It could be way better now, I wouldn’t know, I haven’t had call to use it since… A circuit simulation class?

    Isn’t zero the same in base-2 as it is in base-10? Wouldn’t first place be 1, second place be 10, and third place 11?

      This is about indexes starting at 0, not about binary.
