Programming equivalent of the language spoken by the demons of the inner circles of Hell. Often poorly taught by graduate students to undergrads in science and engineering fields of study, usually under the false pretense that it is usefull for something other than bringing about the end of time. Could be a powerful tool of evil if anyone actually understood it.
Once thought to be derived from the English "matrix", meaning an array of numbers, and "laboratory", meaning a place of study. Now known to be a demonic word meaning 'a 3x3 matrix of 6's'.

Bob's eyes were dim and expressionless after completing his Matlab program... a clear sign that his soul had been torn away.

Horrible programming language which is supposedly easy to learn, though it has caused countless nightmares…
I've been programming for 45 hours this week, which is what I'll be doing next week, too. I still won't get a 'B' in the course.

The stage previous to suicide. Sometimes suicide would be a better option.
It has nothing to do with actual life and there are no badgers involved (as i was previously informed). I'm disappointed.

Matrix Laboratory. It's a programming language developed by The MathWorks intended for scientists and engineers.
Has lots of useful built-in functions and toolboxes for signal processing, data analysis, modelling etc.
Hard to get used to if you're used to C/C++ or Java as it is not object oriented, and the syntax is quite different.

MATLAB ccode example:
H=tf(60*pi, 1 60*pi);
bode(H)
time=1:1024;
h=impulse(H,time/1000);
figure
plot(h)
H=tf(60*pi, 1 60*pi);
bode(H)
time=1:1024;
h=impulse(H,time/1000);
figure
plot(h)

It means that you are going to go over to your engineering study partner's house and fuck with Matlab running in the background, cause plotting takes way too long and you should have used matrix operators instead of for-loops.
Brad: "Hey Julia wanna come over for matlab and chill"
Julia: "Sure I'll pick up the condoms"
Brad: "Wait I thought we were just gonna do some Wind Chill Computation..."
Julia: "Matlab and chill means we fuck, dumbass"
**obviously Brad is NOT an electrical engineering undergraduate

When a female engineer is so desperate for help on Matlab that she resorts to having sex with sex-deprived nerds. Similar to Netflix and Chill, but typically occurs among engineering students who seek a mutually beneficial relationship.
Male nerd: "I am going to finish my Matlab homework tonight."
Female engineer: "Matlab isn't the only thing that will get finished tonight if you help me with this programming. Matlab and chill tonight?"
