Matlab as a language is awful and here are a few examples why:

- You can't chain indexing with function calls. So you can't do myfun()[1]. This gets obnoxious really quickly. I hope you like useless intermediate variables. - You can't have a N-D array with singleton trailing dimension. So if you want dynamically created array sizes you will have to create special cases for that. - One external function per file.
