Preface. G. Q! t/ X: u# S/ i5 ~/ U4 b: B
MATLAB is one of the most widely used computational tools in science and5 _4 `$ M! P8 U) T; T
engineering. No matter what your background—be it physics, chemistry, math, or

There are three good reasons to learn a computational mathematics tool. The first is
C4 N9 m5 b. a, {/ u0 \that it serves as a background check for work you might be doing by hand. If you are+ h1 K" k2 |# u% f3 V1 ] ^
a student, it’s nice to have a back up that you can use to check your answers. I advise9 e, S& L& a8 v- f
that you don’t become co-dependent on a computational tool or trust it as though it& s4 i) L: ~9 N2 n
were an Oracle. Do your work by hand when requested by your professors and just use
# H6 A% x8 T" g3 X( P# oMATLAB or any other tool to check your work to make sure it’s correct.
1 A% y* \5 D X$ T1 t" A; c/ tThe second reason is having a tool like MATLAB is priceless for generating% ~; E: f! p1 v! }, |) w: R, w8 l
plots and for doing numerical methods. Instead of having to go through a tedious" w2 p1 [' r+ x4 l* M0 l
process of plotting something by hand you can just have MATLAB generate any
# [! ~2 N+ s0 X% I: ]! n( V' m8 \nice plot you desire.

one point or another you are going to be working on a project where analytical

& n- r6 A& \+ q0 H1 YMATLAB is widely used in universities, in national laboratories and at private

beginner. The purpose is not to wow experts with complicated solutions built with

to the world of computational mathematics. The approach taken here is to set about

examples we present in this book are going to be ** and aimed at the novice. If, u8 j$ g* ~- Z: E% O# W' o/ T! S
you have never touched MATLAB before or are having lot’s of trouble with it, this
