Installation of Mat lab

Introduction:
The name MATLAB stands for Matrix Laboratory. MATLAB was written originally to
provide easy access to matrix software developed by the LINPACK (linear system package)
and EISPACK (Eigen system package) projects.
MATLAB is a high-performance language for technical computing. It integrates
computation, visualization, and programming environment. Furthermore, MATLAB is a
modern programming language environment: it has sophisticated data structures, contains
built-in editing and debugging tools, and supports object-oriented programming. These
factors make MATLAB an excellent tool for teaching and research.
MATLAB has many advantages compared to conventional computer languages (e.g., C,
FORTRAN) for solving technical problems. MATLAB is an interactive system whose basic
data element is an array that does not require dimensioning. The software package has been
commercially available since 1984 and is now considered as a standard tool at most
universities and industries worldwide.
It has powerful built-in routines that enable a very wide variety of computations. It also has easy
to use graphics commands that make the visualization of results immediately available. Specific
applications are collected in packages referred to as toolbox. There are toolboxes for signal
processing, symbolic computation, control theory, simulation, optimization, and several other
fields of applied science and engineering

Step 1:- Preparation

To run the installer interactively without an internet connection, you need the following:
 Have your File Installation Key and License File available. You need both these items to
perform an off-network installation and activation.
The File Installation Key identifies the products you can install. The License File activates the
installation, identifying which products you can run. The administrator of the license can retrieve
the File Installation Key and License File by visiting the License Center at the Math
Works® website. Download and save these items on removable storage (for example, USB stick)
and copy to the target machine.
 Ensure that the product files, including the MATLAB® installer, are available in an
accessible location, for example, in the default Downloads folder on your computer or on a
network share. If the product files are located in a folder other than the default Downloads folder
on your computer, the installer file must be located in the same folder as the product files.

Step 2:- Start the Installer

1. Copy the products files (including the installer file) to your computer or an accessible
location (for example, USB drive or network share).
2. Start the installer. The method you use to start the installer depends on your platform.
 Windows
If you or an administrator downloaded the product files previously and copied the
product files to your computer, a network share, or to media, go to the top level of the
folder where the product files are located and click setup.exe.

 Mac OS
If you or an administrator downloaded the product files and copied the extracted files to
your computer, a network share, or to media, go to the top level of the folder where the
product files are located and double-click the Install for Mac OS X icon to begin the
installation.

 Linux
If you or an administrator downloaded the product files and copied the extracted files to
your computer, a network share, or to media, go to the top level of the folder where the
product files are located and execute the installer command:install

Step 3:- Install with the file installation key

If you do not have an Internet connection, but have access to product files on your computer or
on a network share, select the Use a File Installation Key option and click next
.
