Question

I am currently investigating matlab and especially the matlab coder.

My understanding is that matlab coder can ‘only’ use a subset of matlab’s language features (control structures, functions, matrix operations).

Am I correct to assume that I cannot produce C code from matlab code that involves certain toolboxes (e.g. Neural Network) or does more complicated stuff, such as laplace transformation and/or uses/implements sophisticated numerical methods?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You’re unfortunately correct about the limitations of matlab coder, a problem I had to deal with when building a control algorithm for C

I know neural networks are currently unsupported. As for the other numerical methods, it depends on what you are looking for.

Edit: I’m not sure why you want to do a Laplace transform, but it can do an fft which for most applications is close enough
