Mathworks on broadcasting

So, MATLAB invented broadcasting:

"Other people thought that the new operator behavior was not sufficiently
based on linear algebra notation. However, instead of thinking of MATLAB as
a purely linear algebra notation, it is more accurate to think of MATLAB as
being a matrix and array computation notation. And in that sense, MATLAB has
a long history of inventing notation that became widely accepted, including
backslash, colon, and various forms of subscripting."
