if you had two side by side computers, one with maple running, and one with matlab running and a gun with only one bullet... the question is which one would you shoot, and which monitor would you smash with the gun :mad:

Matlab! Matlab!

Actually, I like Matlab, but spent way too long programming in it. Useless skill now.

Koan. For sure.

Maple saved my bacon in college

Matlab is used in many different industries for R&D

I think I chose poorly
