Why do simple calculations take such a long time in MATLAB 2020?
- Why do simple calculations take such a long time in Matlab 2020 on my computer?
- For example:
- 2+2
- ans =
- 4
- 10-5
2+2clear;- ![MATLAB](https://powerusers.codidact.com/uploads/ftFXHAYkJMXhuGjvosmvbjio)
- It takes 10-20 seconds before I get the result (ans=...). Why it is taking so long to return the answer to such a simple calculation? The system requirements for the software are:
- - Operating System: Windows 7/8/8.1/10
- - Memory (RAM): 2 GB of RAM required.
- - Hard Disk Space: 30 GB of free space required.
- - Processor: Intel Dual Core processor or later.
- The computer is a laptop with 6 GB RAM and a Core i5. The processor isn't good; is that the reason for this to take so long? Sometimes it takes a minute to complete a calculation.

Why process is running late in MATLAB?

After 10-20 secs I get result (ans=...). Why it is taking some time to done it's process. It was really a simple thing. I had read requirements of [the software](https://getintopc.com/softwares/matlab-r2020a-free-download-1583484/)- - Operating System: Windows 7/8/8.1/10
- - Memory (RAM): 2 GB of RAM required.
- - Hard Disk Space: 30 GB of free space required.
- - Processor: Intel Dual Core processor or later.
The running laptop's RAM is 6 GB. And Core i5. Processor isn't good, is that the reason of completing late a process? Sometimes, it takes a minute to complete a process also.

- 2+2
- ans =
