Getting Started with MATLAB

Matlab, a software package for high-performance numerical computation and visualization, is one of the most widely used tools in the engineering field today. Its broad appeal lies in its interactive environment, which features hundreds of built-in functions for Technical computation, graphics, and animation. In addition, MATLAB provides easy extensibility with its own high-level programming language. Enhanced by fun and appealing illustrations, getting started with MATLAB: a quick introduction for scientists and engineers, seventh edition, employs a casual, accessible writing style that shows users how to enjoy using MATLAB.
