MuPAD is a

In September 2008, SciFace was purchased by MathWorks and the MuPAD code was included in the Symbolic Math Toolbox add-on for MATLAB. On 28 September 2008, MuPAD was withdrawn from the market as a software product in its own right.^[1] However, it is still available in the Symbolic Math Toolbox in MATLAB and can also be used as a stand-alone program by the command mupad entered into the MATLAB terminal.

The MuPAD notebook feature has been removed in MATLAB R2020a. However, MATLAB's Symbolic Math Toolbox still uses the MuPAD language as part of its underlying computational engine. MATLAB Live Editor is the recommended environment for performing, documenting, and sharing symbolic math computations.^[2]

Functionality

MuPAD offers:

• a computer algebra system to manipulate formulas symbolically;
• classic and verified numerical analysis in discretionary accuracy;
• program packages for
  differential equations, number theory, statistics, and functional programming
  ;
• an interactive graphic system that supports animations and transparent areas in 3D, and;
• a programming language that supports object-oriented programming and functional programming.

Often used commands are accessible via menus. MuPAD offers a notebook concept similar to word processing systems that allows the formulation of mathematical problems as well as graphics visualization and explanations in formatted text.

MuPad does not follow the

It is possible to extend MuPAD with C++ routines to accelerate calculations. Java code can also be embedded.

MuPAD's syntax was modeled on that of the

  A := matrix( [[1,2],[3,4]] )

  A+A, -A, 2*A, A*A, A^-1, exp( A ), A.A, A^0, 0*A
