Frequently Asked Questions about pdist()
Is the pdist() function free to use in SimLab?
Yes. SimLab is 100% free — no signup, no license, and no usage limits. You can run pdist() and 510+ other MATLAB®-compatible functions directly in your browser at simulations4all.com/simlab.
Do I need to install MATLAB to use pdist()?
No. SimLab runs entirely in your web browser with zero installation. The pdist() function works without any MATLAB® license or software download.
What does pdist() do?
Pairwise distances between observations (rows of X). Default metric is Euclidean. It is a MATLAB®-compatible machine learning function available in SimLab with the same calling syntax as MATLAB® — typically: D = pdist(X).
Can I run pdist() in my browser?
Yes. Open SimLab at simulations4all.com/simlab, write or paste code that calls pdist(), and run it. Execution happens locally in your browser — no data leaves your machine.
