Programming In Matlab

Computer Programming with MATLAB

MATLAB PROGRAMMING

MATLAB is a very powerful, high-level technical computing language used by mathematicians, scientists and engineers to solve problems in a wide range of application areas. It also comes with several toolboxes to solve most common problems. The book introduces MATLAB programming in simple language with numerous examples that help clarify the concepts. It is designed to enable readers develop a strong working knowledge of MATLAB and acquire programming skills to write efficient programs. The book is suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate engineering students, researchers and professionals who wish to learn this language quickly and more conveniently. The readers after going through this book will be able to write their own programs to solve scientific and engineering problems of varying complexity. KEY FEATURES : Use of system commands and problem-solving techniques in command windows is explained in simple and clear language. Handling of arrays and matrices, which are the main entities in MATLAB environment, is discussed extensively in separate chapters. Handling of cell arrays and structures is described clearly with examples. Techniques of developing new MATLAB programs using scripts and functions are explained in a systematic way. File-handling techniques are also demonstrated. Topics of two-dimensional graphics are discussed with illustrative plots. GUI programming is introduced in an easily understandable way.

Programming in MATLAB

Perfect for use in a lab or by individuals, PROGRAMMING IN MATLAB is designed to help anyone interested in electrical and computer engineering develop programming skills using MATLAB as the programming language. The text is also applicable for those interested in utilizing MATLAB in industry. MATLAB is quickly surpassing C, BASIC, and Fortran in engineering departments as the programming language of choice (due to the many functions and toolboxes the program features). It allows the many students who use it to write complex programs to solve a variety of technical problems efficiently. Herniter offers a straightforward approach to learning the program, and assumes no prior exposure to MATLAB. The book offers comprehensive instructions for programming in MATLAB, including specific output results and numerous MATLAB screen captures. Its use is ideal in a lab/lecture setting where readers can recreate examples and complete problem assignments. However, the text organization is also appropriate for use as a general reference guide for programming MATLAB. Herniter introduces fundamental programming skills, then moves into solving basic problems using built-in MATLAB functions, and finally into solving engineering problems using MATLAB.
