ZEMAX and Matlab : A Powerful Pair
ZEMAX features a built-in DDE (Dynamic Data Exchange) server that allows other Windows® applications
access to ZEMAX functions. Programming DDE applications can be somewhat complex if you are working
in a compiled language such as C++. An alternative is to use one of the scripting languages such as Tcl,
Python or Matlab. Matlab is a great choice since it is much more than a scripting language. Matlab
provides a wealth of functions for processing and visualizing scientific and engineering data and there are
toolboxes for Matlab that extend the basic capabilities into a wide variety of more specialized areas and
disciplines.
