I have a background as a programmer and recently started using Matlab/simulink. It is good for some things like controllers etc. Can't really say I like it for things I would usually use when programming, like loops and if statements(I know simulink has these but they make no sense).

I also believe simulink has been used mostly for simulation therefore it's name and not programming. However now you can generate code from your model.
