| − | ===Matlab on a 64-bit machine===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | * ECE students that will be using the Velleman scope integration will require 32-bit MATLAB installations (due to the library provided by the vendor is 32-bit only). The documentation in the support package does call out this requirement.
| + | |
| − | * 64-bit OS users can have both a Win 32-bit install and a win 64-bit install at the same time (as well as for different versions e.g. R2011a and R2011b). There may not be a reason too, but it is possible. Each of these installations go into a different installation folder, and the applications can be run at the same time if desired.
