Does Swift have the libraries that Python/Matlab has? My wife is doing some kind of fMRI analysis/research for her PhD and she's using Matlab. I'm an iOS developer, so I'd love it if I can get her to use Swift!
- msravi 8y agoNot sure about Swift libraries, but you should definitely try Julia. It's incredibly easy to move from MATLAB to Julia. https://julialang.org/ https://julialang.org/
- therealmarv 8y agoI know companies like e.g. Airbus which replaced Matlab with Python.
- Bukhmanizer 8y agoMost fMRI toolboxes are written in Matlab or Python unfortunately. You don't really want to go down the path of trying to rewrite (most of them) too.
- thefilth 8y agoIf you mean the matlab toolboxes (eg, image processing toolbox), which are proprietary libraries that you pay like $1k per year to use, no. Honestly, as someone who wrote matlab professionally for a couple years, the price is a joke, and the performance is jokier. The only reason that matlab still exists is that they use the same marketing tactics as drug dealers- it's free to universities, and super easy to use.
