Fortran with MATLAB

To launch MATLAB, evaluate MATLAB functions with arguments, and exchange data between MATLAB and Fortran, use the MATLAB Fortran Engine API. For more information, see Call MATLAB from Fortran.

To create MATLAB functions that can access Fortran subroutines from MATLAB, use the Fortran MEX API. For more information, see Write Fortran Functions Callable from MATLAB (MEX Files).

If you must write a custom program to interact with MATLAB data — for example, you want to read data from an external application, but you do not have access to the source code — see Write Fortran Programs to Read MAT-File Data.
