Preface
/ o5 {0 G3 w4 ]$ _MATLAB is one of the most widely used computational tools in science and
/ y% r- a( v t! n- M( ^+ }# ~engineering. No matter what your background—be it physics, chemistry, math, or* K" p! W8 {, x- R! T8 z3 j! X
engineering—it would behoove you to at least learn the basics of this powerful tool.
" O7 p& H1 {% k, i7 l0 B3 aThere are three good reasons to learn a computational mathematics tool. The first is# @3 k1 ~! S2 z/ i- O4 S+ w
that it serves as a background check for work you might be doing by hand. If you are
# i2 C6 P" q5 ya student, it’s nice to have a back up that you can use to check your answers. I advise' e! h) F: R2 F7 P" F/ i7 n! n% \
that you don’t become co-dependent on a computational tool or trust it as though it
" r* |' T; ?5 A" \9 ~were an Oracle. Do your work by hand when requested by your professors and just use
\9 ~" W; I7 {' `/ p" \% ^/ Y6 a' Q, bMATLAB or any other tool to check your work to make sure it’s correct.
* o' V. V( w, uThe second reason is having a tool like MATLAB is priceless for generating$ @0 I. ]/ p) P$ w; q3 o
plots and for doing numerical methods. Instead of having to go through a tedious
' C+ E6 a( z% ]0 s0 wprocess of plotting something by hand you can just have MATLAB generate any. z8 }5 d( M Q0 P
nice plot you desire.# s9 E l. a2 ^5 ^
Thirdly, the bottom line is that at some point in your career you will have to use

solutions are not possible. If you work in industry or in a national lab, chances are

MATLAB is widely used in universities, in national laboratories and at private

Now a word about this particular book. This book is aimed squarely at the MATLAB
, f9 w+ T2 K9 }5 ^; i w% C% B* ibeginner. The purpose is not to wow experts with complicated solutions built with+ V, j4 Z5 ^, \
MATLAB. Rather, the purpose of this book is to introduce a person new to MATLAB
$ `: a* ~; {' Z9 k8 q+ I* V3 tto the world of computational mathematics. The approach taken here is to set about$ K% y% X: p6 U2 F9 A9 p) a" p+ Q
learning how to use MATLAB to do some basic things-plot functions, solve algebraic
$ \; d6 X( @; ^+ I) q/ nequations, compute integrals and solve differential equations for example. So the
( k, |$ p& {+ {$ ]examples we present in this book are going to be ** and aimed at the novice. If
; L3 Q7 s$ D" E4 g- Y9 H6 pyou have never touched MATLAB before or are having lot’s of trouble with it, this: ^% L0 Z0 v% i( ]9 w: J
book will help you build a basic skill set that can be used to master it. The book is a: q: C! ~5 t# `, _8 Y
stepping stone to mastery and nothing more. |
