Anyone know matlab?

How big is big?

I have never run into that issue in using matlab student version through my university, but then again I’m not sure how large you are talking about. Your best would be to contact MathWorks support.

got in touch with tech support. they said there’s no limit other than that for matlab in general which is 2^32 entries – crazy big. I tried pulling my dataset into matlab and got an error message though: “not enough memory space to read file contents” The file is big – 60MB – probably millions, maybe a billion – but NOT 2^32.

2^32 isn’t all that big. Only ~4 billion (unless my mind has gone crazy from working 8 hours). Now if they said 2e32. then yes that is crazy big. Most of what I have used matlab for is modeling and differential equations so I don’t know if I could help much with a dataset as large as you have.
