in matlab, both linsolve and mldivide are used for solving a system of linear equations, in all of determined, overdetermined and underdetermined cases.

Reading their documents, I was wondering what differences are between them? Are they using almost the same algorithms of matrix factorization and triangularization in the three cases?

If A has the properties in opts, linsolve is faster than mldivide, because linsolve does not perform any tests to verify that A has the specified properties

Does mldivide perform the same tests to verify if A has the special properties? Or does mldivide just treat them as general case without the special properties?

Thanks!
