MATLAB

Where is the MATLAB application located?

Best Answer

MATLAB is located in different places and has different names depending on what operating system you are using. In the below examples, "R20XXx" is a placeholder for the release in question, e.g. R2016b.
Windows:
C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R20XXx\bin\matlab.exe
Mac:
/Applications/Matlab_R20XXx.app
Linux:
/usr/local/MATLAB/R20XXx/bin/matlab
Please note that it is possible to have multiple releases of MATLAB installed on the same machine, which is why the release is always included in the path to the application.
