Extend MATLAB’s capabilities by accessing the Python Package Index’s 300,000-plus modules. Using this book, you will learn how to sidestep computational and analytic gaps in the core MATLAB product by performing tasks directly in Python, such as connecting to a database engine, overlaying data on a map, and running large analyses on clusters. Python for MATLAB Development begins by teaching you Python through a comprehensive collection of MATLAB/Python equivalent expressions before demonstrating how to use Python directly in MATLAB. After reading this book, you’ll know how to call any Python function from MATLAB – helping you avoid costly toolbox add-ons and overcome logistical constraints such as floating network licenses. What You Will Learn Employ SymPy to perform symbolic mathematical solutions (integrals, derivatives, series summations) Compute weighted least squares solutions with ciPy Use PuLP to solve mixed-integer linear programming problems Overlay data on maps with Cartopy instead of using the Mapping Toolbox Run large computations in parallel using dask Interact with a Redis server via pyredis Accelerate Python code using numba to compute results faster using a hybrid MATLAB/Python solution Who This Book Is For MATLAB developers who are new to Python and other developers with some prior experience with MATLAB or other similar tool.
