This book is a short, focused introduction to MATLAB, a comprehen-sive software system for mathematics and technical computing. It will
be useful to bothbeginning and experienced users. It contains concise
explanations of essential MATLAB commands, as well as easily under-stood instructions for using MATLAB’s programming features, graphi-cal capabilities, and desktop interface. It also includes an introduction
to SIMULINK, a companion to MATLAB for system simulation.
Written for MATLAB 6, this book can also be used with earlier (and
later) versions of MATLAB. This book contains worked-out examples
of applications of MATLAB to interesting problems in mathematics,
engineering, economics, and physics. In addition, it contains explicit
instructions for using MATLAB’s Microsoft Word interface to produce
polished, integrated, interactive documents for reports, presentations,
or online publishing.
This book explains everything you need to know to begin using
MATLAB to do all these things and more. Intermediate and advanced
users will find useful information here, especially if they are making
the switch to MATLAB 6 from an earlier version.
