MATLAB for Engineers introduces students to the MATLAB coding language. Developed out of Holly Moore’s experience teaching MATLAB and other languages, the text meets students at their level of mathematical and computer sophistication. Starting with basic algebra, the book shows how MATLAB can be used to solve a wide range of engineering problems. Examples drawn from concepts introduced in early chemistry and physics classes and freshman and sophomore engineering classes stick to a consistent problem-solving methodology.
An introduction to MATLAB and Simulink is included, and MATLAB is used throughout the book to solve example problems. Symbolic Math Toolbox is introduced in a chapter on symbolic computations.
