Description
|
This first book on MATLAB has three defining features: a set of quick start lessons that introduce the basics of MATLAB using a learn-by-doing approach; a set of reference chapters that provide in-depth, freshman-level descriptions of MATLAB operators, commands, important concepts and the Desktop graphical user interface (GUI) tools; and an extensive index that can be used to quickly locate information in the book. The book also includes a CDROM, called M-Tutor, which is an interactive computer-based set of lectures and exercises that guide students through new concepts and syntax with useful aids such as audio, video and interactive exercises.
The text focuses on a set of core commands that provide sufficient power, but is manageable for a student to understand. A good working knowledge base in MATLAB can be developed using this book, yet it is compact, concise and very affordable.
This book is an ideal supplement to a course that introduces MATLAB to solve problems. The book provides an introduction at a level suitable for freshman students, focusing on a set of core operators and commands, making the learning process much more manageable. This also results in a smaller, less intimidating, and very affordable book. Included with the book is a CDROM, which contains interactive, computer-based lectures and exercises that in combination with this book can be used as part of a self-study program to learn MATLAB.
