As an engineer this is extremely offensive. MATLAB is for fucking tryhards.

as an R user, what is matlab what is it about

It's mainly a tool for working with matrices (matrix laboratory). This is useful for solving ordinary differential equations. Learning Matlab is usually a requirement for first year engineering students. I'm now a licensed chemical engineer, and I haven't used Matlab since sophomore year.
