Given the cross-platform requirement, I quickly eliminated the. Putting it together by NOT re-inventing the wheel I call extending MATLAB functionality a "triple-word-score" since it nets large increments in productivity with minimal effort. Not finding what I needed, I decided to build a spellchecker by leveraging existing technology with a little MATLAB effort. A quick File Exchange search and follow-up internet searches turned up nothing. The first step was to ensure that I was not re-inventing the wheel. allow for the modification of word lists) make no assumptions around use of English as we have over a million users worldwide)

work with our Windows, Mac and Linux releases) be accessible across most versions of MATLAB) Since I use the MATLAB editor, there is an immediate need to simplify my workflow by providing easy access to spellcheck from the MATLAB environment itself.Ī spellchecker could benefit other users so I quickly drew up a list of requirements. A spellchecker is always helpful when writing. You may have noticed the "published in MATLAB" at the very bottom of this blog post.īloggers on this site often use MATLAB for authoring their content and I am no exception. How does MATLAB's extensibility help you in your day-to-day life?Īn immediate problem and answer to this question presented itself in the authoring of content for this very blog. Leveraging the extensibility of MATLAB - the Triple-word-score MATLAB is designed to be extensible, for example, the MEX interface provides access to nearly all of FORTRAN and C/C++ functionality for the expression of numeric algorithms. Some 3rd party libraries such as Xerces™ (for processing XML) are baked into the shipping MATLAB product itself. MATLAB's extensibility provides access to a wide variety of functionality in C/C++, Java. Extensible, refers to MATLAB's ability to integrate with other languages and technology stacks.

The community driven contributions on File Exchange has grown over the years to a scale that rivals the code that ships on the DVD. Open, refers to the fact that much of MATLAB functionality is shipped in MATLAB files whose source can be studied. MATLAB is an open and extensible platform unique in its ability to dovetail with best-in-class technologies.
