Introduction to Matlab:Accessing Matlab at Mason
There are several ways to get to Matlab:
1. Log in remotely, using VCL for Windows or Mac(using these instructions, or those found at:http://cds130.org/vcl#Virtual_Computing_Lab_Login_Guide)
2. Log in remotely, using CygWin on Windows3. Log in remotely, using Linux (SSH)4. Log in locally, at the Johnson Center5. Log in locally, at Innovation Hall6. Purchase it at Patriot Computers ($109)

Introduction to Matlab:Accessing Matlab at Mason
We’ll explain the first three, since they involve remote access. On campus access is easy through any workstation (Matlab appears in the list of available software). Of course, if you wish to purchase Matlab, then you’ll have your own copy to work with, on your own computer.
1. Log in remotely, using VCL for Windows or Mac(using these instructions, or those found at:http://cds130.org/vcl#Virtual_Computing_Lab_Login_Guide)

Introduction to Matlab:Accessing Matlab at Mason
Best help sources: Soo routinely accesses Matlab using VCL on Windows, and Samantha accesses Matlab using VCL on a Mac. Dr. Marr has accessed Matlab from home using Cygwin on Windows and also using ssh on Linux.
