MATFOR is the advanced visualization toolkit built on Fortran and C++ specifically designed for programmers in the scientific computing field.
A collection of high-level graphical procedures developed with the mission of accelerating your program developing process.
Reinforcing the perception of your simulation models with enhanced visualization and animation capabilities.
- Advanced 2D/3D visualization
- Instant visualization
- Movie-like presentation
- Real-time animation
- Matlab-like syntax

Advanced 2D/3D visualization:
MATFOR's graphics library contains high-level graphical procedures that support x-y plot, vector plot, contour, mesh plot, surface plot, isosurface plot, streamline, slicing plot, molecules plot and more. This variety of graphical procedures allows you to use different representation methods depending on what you want to emphasize on your simulation model.
Instant visualization:
MATFOR's Graphics Viewer displays high quality graphs with no need of Windows programming and graphics initialization. This visualization capability enables you to display graphs instantly with only a couple of lines of programming.
Movie-like presentation:
MATFOR's mfPlayer transforms computed data to movie-like animation and allow you to do additional graphical manipulations on it. This presentation capability makes you the director of your simulated animation that is to be presented to your audiences.
Real-time animation:
MATFOR's Graphics Viewer cooperates with its Data Viewer to display intermediate data during program execution. This real-time program monitoring mechanism significantly reduces the time and effort you spent on program development.
Matlab-like syntax:
MATFOR's mfArray provides dynamic data typing and dimensioning and it acts as the basic of MATFOR. This fundamental data structure brings simplicity as it enables you to use Matlab-like syntax in Fortran and C++ environment.
Numerical library:
MATFOR’s numerical procedures are designed to be intuitive and simple to use. Using the numerical functions, you can solve many technical computing systems, especially those involving linear algebra system, in a fraction of the time it would take to write a program traditionally in Fortran or C++.

MATFOR is a set of Fortran 90/95 and C/C++ libraries that enhances your program with dynamic visualization capabilities, shortens your numerical codes and speeds up your development process.
By adding a few lines of MATFOR codes to your Fortran program, you can easily visualize your computing results, perform run-time animations, or even produce a movie presentation file as you execute your program.
Debugging is facilitated with the debugging facilities provided by MATFOR Graphics Viewer. You can pause an animation, view the current data using MATFOR Data Viewer, and examine any aberrations.
MATFOR numerical procedures are designed to be intuitive and simple to use. Using the numerical procedures, you can solve many technical computing systems, especially those involving linear algebra system, in a fraction of the time it would take to write a program traditionally Fortran.

MATFOR is a set of Fortran 90/95 and C/C++ libraries that enhances your program with dynamic visualization capabilities, shortens your numerical codes and speeds up your development process.
By adding a few lines of MATFOR codes to your Fortran program, you can easily visualize your computing results, perform run-time animations, or even produce a movie presentation file as you execute your program.
The MATFOR 3 libraries offer developers great features such as Material and Transparency control, Axis and appearance, Colormap, Object position, rotaion and Eular angle manipulations, Bitmap exporting, Axis grid, wall and ticks manipulations and Texture mapping on the surface objects. Using these libraries allows developers more time to focus on specific application development and research rather than creating functions from scratch.
