- Description
- A MAT-file holds the variables saved from a MATLAB session: numeric arrays such as matrices and images, text, cell arrays and structs. Files saved with -v7.3 are HDF5 files behind a MATLAB header. Unity and Unreal material files use the .mat extension too, but they are a different format.
- IPL is popularly used to store 3D applications or computer games graphic texture images. It is also used as a Pantone Spot reference palette in CorelDRAW to apply colours to editable elements.
