MATLAB is a robust platform primarily aimed at advanced mathematical modeling and analytics, featuring extensive functionality for matrix operations and a wide range of toolboxes. Swift Calcs, on the other hand, is more user-friendly and suitable for quick calculations and app integration but lacks some of the advanced capabilities and extensive resources that MATLAB offers.
