Description
MATLAB: An Introduction with Applications is known for its just-in-time learning approach that gives students information when they need it. The 6th Edition gradually presents the latest MATLAB functionality in detail. The book includes numerous sample problems in mathematics, science, and engineering that are similar to the problems encountered by new users of MATLAB. This book is intended for students who are using MATLAB for the first time and have little or no experience in computer programming. It can be used as a textbook in first-year engineering courses or as a reference in more advanced science and engineering courses where MATLAB is introduced as a tool for solving problems.
