Preface. A# Y: D+ z8 r6 {2 N+ E
MATLAB is one of the most widely used computational tools in science and
* s+ m7 n# u4 ?* s! Jengineering. No matter what your background—be it physics, chemistry, math, or1 A% |3 g- f; y# t
engineering—it would behoove you to at least learn the basics of this powerful tool.$ j- K5 q% d7 f( S
There are three good reasons to learn a computational mathematics tool. The first is
- O* y5 j! m7 A, F# Sthat it serves as a background check for work you might be doing by hand. If you are
" Y: w# d! Z }7 J( k6 za student, it’s nice to have a back up that you can use to check your answers. I advise$ x N" r/ k4 p4 W; j
that you don’t become co-dependent on a computational tool or trust it as though it
' ~ L1 e7 F% b. A2 f5 Swere an Oracle. Do your work by hand when requested by your professors and just use
( c, _+ W6 v7 v3 W, n" [1 rMATLAB or any other tool to check your work to make sure it’s correct.
$ o( y" [/ ?& m6 Z+ q! A+ u' DThe second reason is having a tool like MATLAB is priceless for generating
# L% t8 `6 h) e% zplots and for doing numerical methods. Instead of having to go through a tedious i8 W& Q% P7 U/ R* ]& i( b
process of plotting something by hand you can just have MATLAB generate any4 q$ F' F# C/ p% y4 b* _: v. d7 ?
nice plot you desire.7 w, l, f& r0 p
Thirdly, the bottom line is that at some point in your career you will have to use
* F, l6 E1 i; m- t$ b" pa computational mathematics tool. If you’re a professor doing theoretical work, at
% J* H0 K5 ^+ s% d1 [$ yone point or another you are going to be working on a project where analytical+ x# i8 b4 ^: j
solutions are not possible. If you work in industry or in a national lab, chances are

companies. Knowing MATLAB will definitely be a plus on your resume.& _1 f. h$ H" O4 j/ K4 C' n+ K% Y! i- {
Now a word about this particular book. This book is aimed squarely at the MATLAB
' A( `5 U! ]' Obeginner. The purpose is not to wow experts with complicated solutions built with! _ Q/ c7 p* _9 n1 Y* ~7 A
MATLAB. Rather, the purpose of this book is to introduce a person new to MATLAB1 H$ B, x6 ]; z6 n! P
to the world of computational mathematics. The approach taken here is to set about

equations, compute integrals and solve differential equations for example. So the1 Q2 M8 Y7 R) Z+ n9 c; f

you have never touched MATLAB before or are having lot’s of trouble with it, this
' x0 L/ E2 U8 U% A5 I) S& Kbook will help you build a basic skill set that can be used to master it. The book is a
