Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Matlab to Crystal using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

Key differences between Matlab and Crystal
Characteristic | Matlab | Crystal |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Matlab uses a syntax that is similar to traditional programming languages, with a focus on matrix operations and mathematical computations. | Crystal uses a syntax that is inspired by Ruby, with a clean and expressive syntax that is easy to read and write. |
Paradigm | Matlab is primarily a procedural programming language, but it also supports object-oriented programming. | Crystal is a statically-typed, object-oriented programming language with a focus on performance and type safety. |
Typing | Matlab is dynamically typed, meaning that variable types are determined at runtime. | Crystal is statically typed, meaning that variable types are checked at compile-time. |
Performance | Matlab is optimized for numerical computations and has built-in support for matrix operations, making it highly efficient for scientific and engineering applications. | Crystal is designed for high performance and can be as fast as C, thanks to its static typing and ahead-of-time compilation. |
Libraries and frameworks | Matlab has a wide range of built-in libraries and toolboxes for various domains, such as signal processing, image processing, and control systems. | Crystal has a growing ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, although it may not have as many options as more established languages. |
Community and support | Matlab has a large and active community, with extensive documentation, online forums, and official support from MathWorks. | Crystal has a smaller community compared to more popular languages, but it is growing steadily, and there are online forums and community-driven resources available. |
Learning curve | Matlab has a relatively low learning curve, especially for users with a background in mathematics or engineering. | Crystal has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with Ruby or other similar languages. |
