URL --- <http://mlabwrap.sourceforge.net> Description ----------- Mlabwrap-1.0 is a high-level python to matlab(tm) bridge that makes calling matlab functions from python almost as convenient as using a normal python library. It is available under a very liberal license (BSD/MIT) and should work on all major platforms and (non-ancient) python and matlab versions and either numpy or Numeric (Numeric support will be dropped in the future). News ---- version 1.0b brings python 2.5 compatibility and various small fixes (improved error handling for 7.3, improvements to setup.py etc.). Provided I don't get any bug reports within the next two weeks or so the only difference between this version and 1.0 final will be cheeseshop support. Since mlabwrap 1.0 will be the last version that offers Numeric support anyone who wants to put off the switch to numpy a bit longer and is interested in using mlabwrap is strongly encouraged to download, test and possibly submit a bug report now. Examples -------- Creating a simple line plot:

...

...

from mlabwrap import mlab; mlab.plot([1,2,3],'-o')

Creating a surface plot:

...

...

from mlabwrap import mlab; from numpy import * xx = arange(-2*pi, 2*pi, 0.2) mlab.surf(subtract.outer(sin(xx),cos(xx)))

Creating a neural network and training it on the xor problem (requires netlab)

...

...

net = mlab.mlp(2,3,1,'logistic') net = mlab.mlptrain(net, [[1,1], [0,0], [1,0], [0,1]], [0,0,1,1], 1000)
