The agreement is advantageous to the campus community as it includes MATLAB, Simulink, and 16 other toolboxes that do not come with a normal license.
MATLAB SYMBOLIC TOOLBOX PURCHASE SOFTWARE
The TAH license covers on-campus and home software use as well as classroom and lab installations for all instructors, eligible staff, researchers, and students.
The University of Massachusetts Amherst has a Total Academic Headcount (TAH) license for MATLAB, Simulink and companion toolboxes, which allows us to offer the product at a significantly reduced price.
MATLAB SYMBOLIC TOOLBOX PURCHASE INSTALL
A fix for the Symbolic Math toolbox issue currently affecting the use of GPTIPS (v2.0) in MATLAB R2018a onwards will be released soon.A workaround is to install a version of MATLAB prior to R2018a alongside your current version, check if your MATLAB license allows this (it probably does).
Version 3 adds symbolic computation with quaternions, provided that you have the Symbolic Math. Version 2 of the toolbox adds support for octonions. Many Matlab operators and functions are overloaded to work for real quaternion and complexified quaternion matrices. Quaternion toolbox for Matlab is a toolbox that extends Matlab to handle matrices of quaternions with real and complex components. Developed by MathWorks, MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages, including C, C++, Java, and Fortran.
MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a numerical computing environment and fourth-generation programming language.
