Product Description
Product Description
Assuming no knowledge of programming, this book presents both programming concepts and MATLAB's built-in functions, providing a perfect platform for exploiting MATLAB's extensive capabilities for tackling engineering problems. It starts with programming concepts such as variables, assignments, input/output, and selection statements, moves onto loops and then solves problems using both the 'programming concept' and the 'power of MATLAB' side-by-side. In-depth coverage is given to input/output, a topic that is fundamental to many engineering applications. This title presents programming concepts and MATLAB built-in functions side-by-side, giving students the ability to program efficiently and exploit the power of MATLAB to solve problems. It offers in depth coverage of file input/output, a topic essential for many engineering applications. Systematic, step-by-step approach, building on concepts throughout the book, facilitating easier learning. It includes sections on 'common pitfalls' and 'programming guidelines' direct students towards best practice.

Matlab: A Practical Introduction
This book unusually does more than it says on the cover. It's not just an introduction to programming in Matlab, but is in fact a superb all round introduction to Matlab. I had virtually no experience of Matlab before I started this book (although I have some experience in programming), and by the end I felt I had enough expertise to be able to work my way around.
The book covers the basics of the Matlab interface and the Matlab language, as well as an introduction to programming scripts and functions. The book also covers input and output - reading and writing to external files, as well as processing sounds and images, particularly plotting graphs. There are a large number of very useful examples from maths and statistics. There's a nice sense of progression too, from easier to more difficult and complicated examples. The book also teaches the elements of good programming style and practice.
To get the most out of it you should work through the numerous examples and problems.
Very highly recommended; if anyone knows of a better introduction to Matlab at such a reasonable price, I'd like to know about it.

Format:Paperback
I needed a quick course on Matlab for my thesis and this book is the best I could come up to. The explanations are great and every chapter has enough examples and practices. At the end of the chapter there are exercises to follow and some of them are also explanatory as well.
The book also defines two ways of doing things. One way is explained by the general programming logic and another way is shown using the matlab specific functions. All in all the book is really good and by the end of the book, you feel comfortable using matlab.

Just started an engineering course and using Matlab. This book covers everything you need as a student and is well structured. Unless you are doing some seriously advanced stuff, this book is perfect!
