MATLAB Plot Slope Fields in Matlab | Mathematica vs. Matlab

AI Thread Summary
To plot slope fields in MATLAB, users typically create unit vectors and plot them along level curves, but there is interest in finding a more direct method. The discussion also compares MATLAB and Mathematica for mathematical operations, with a recommendation for Mathematica for its capabilities in vector and field visualization. The conversation highlights a preference for Mathematica for tasks like slope field plotting, suggesting it may be more user-friendly for such applications.

Does anyone know how to plot slope fields with Matlab? The only things I can find require creating unit vectors and plotting them along level curves. Is their a more direct way? Also, what program do you think is better for straight forward math operation like this, Mathematica or Matlab?

Aren't you not going to share your MATLAB code with us? :wink:

At least you know how to do it. I don't.
 
Sorry, I only know about Mathematica, but since you asked I recommend it highly for this sort of thing:
