Question

Some background for people reading this in the future (in case it\'s not locked). I tend to do my programming in a high level language to understand the problem first. After

Answer 1

Advantage:

1. A lot of complex math functions are available.
2. For hardcore math programming related.

Disadvantage:

1. It's not popular compared with another modern languages like C#, java, python . you name it.
2. Since you code matlab, you tend to focus mostly on complex math problems solving. Another languages are used in variety tasks from drawing, web development and math as well ( it doesn't have rich math functions like matlab for sure )

Another benefits I know: Since it's optimized for technical programming, you may have better performance when writing application on this field. The performance is very dependable, take a look at this question, it provides some helpful information.
