# MATLAB 9.7 (R2019b)
# MATLAB 9.6 (R2019a)
# MATLAB 9.5 (R2018b)
# MATLAB 9.4 (R2018a)
- New interleaved complex ABI for MEX files
# MATLAB 9.3 (R2017b)
- New `isfile` function
# MATLAB 9.2 (R2017a)
# MATLAB 9.1 (R2016b)
- Adds “automatic broadcasting”, also known as “implicit expansion” (`bsxfun`
becomes therefore essentially useless)
- New `contains` function
- New `splitlines` function
# MATLAB 9.0 (R2016a)
- No more 32-bit support
# MATLAB 8.6 (R2015b)
# MATLAB 8.5 (R2015a)
- First version to officially support Windows 10, see https://fr.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/223444-is-matlab-compatible-with-windows-10
# MATLAB 8.4 (R2014b)
# MATLAB 8.3 (R2014a)
- Support for new Ethernet interface naming under GNU/Linux (older versions are
difficult to install on modern GNU/Linux systems), see https://fr.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/73938-activating-on-linux-without-eth0
- New `isdiag`, `isbanded`, `issymmetric`, `ishermitian`, `istril`, `istriu`,
and `bandwidth` functions for testing matrix structure
- New `sylvester` function for solving the Sylvester equation
# MATLAB 8.2 (R2013b)
# MATLAB 8.1 (R2013a)
- New option `stable` to `intersect` and other set manipulation functions
- New `strsplit` and `strjoin` functions
# MATLAB 8.0 (R2012b)
- Syntax for abstract classes
# MATLAB 7.14 (R2012a)
- `xlsread` now natively supports `.xlsx` files on all platforms (no need to
have Microsoft Office installed)
# MATLAB 7.13 (R2011b)
- New `narginchk` function
# MATLAB 7.12 (R2011a)
- New random number generators interface (`rng`, `getGlobalStream` and `setGlobalStream` functions)
- New `ichol` function
# MATLAB 7.11 (R2010b)
- New `isrow`, `iscolumn` and `ismatrix` functions
# MATLAB 7.10 (R2010a)
- Ships with MKL 10.2, which fixes a nasty bug in `dgges` (for which a
workaround has been implemented in the `mjdgges` MEX)
