MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory) is a multi-paradigm numerical computing environment and fourth-generationprogramming language. MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementationof algorithms, creation of user interfaces and interfacing with programs written in other languages,including C, C++, Java, Fortran and Python. Electrochemistry is a branch of chemistry that studies the relationshipbetween electricity, as a measurable and quantitative phenomenon, and identifiable chemical change, with eitherelectricity considered an outcome of a particular chemical change or vice versa. MATLAB has obtained a widerange of applications in different fields of science and electrochemists are also using it for solving their problemswhich can help them to obtain more quantitative and qualitative information about systems under their studies. Inthis review, we are going to cast a look on different applications of MATLAB in electrochemistry and for eachsection, a number of selected articles published in the literature will be discussed and finally, the results will besummarized and concluded
