6 i( ?8 G, X) @. uMATLAB is one of the most widely used computational tools in science and
4 q- F; V! V6 Y2 I5 oengineering. No matter what your background—be it physics, chemistry, math, or
( y; E! k' f. d* k5 j4 ]% Vengineering—it would behoove you to at least learn the basics of this powerful tool.# {' Q7 v/ g' z, n
There are three good reasons to learn a computational mathematics tool. The first is
! Y* p7 m+ ]4 X9 Nthat it serves as a background check for work you might be doing by hand. If you are
' Y" S- P, {- Q: @: e2 E# na student, it’s nice to have a back up that you can use to check your answers. I advise
; b5 m8 B' m0 z3 Gthat you don’t become co-dependent on a computational tool or trust it as though it
8 E: M$ [. y0 N* g2 f" Nwere an Oracle. Do your work by hand when requested by your professors and just use( K" y$ m! }% v, F
MATLAB or any other tool to check your work to make sure it’s correct.* b. ]9 \5 w2 K: v
The second reason is having a tool like MATLAB is priceless for generating
5 S* [' \7 ?3 I( Cplots and for doing numerical methods. Instead of having to go through a tedious
. {- u0 H# m l8 i6 I# Aprocess of plotting something by hand you can just have MATLAB generate any0 k" W; H& ?* v8 D* _1 W
nice plot you desire.8 r, U* c! W. W3 O, h$ |* Z) D7 @
Thirdly, the bottom line is that at some point in your career you will have to use7 S5 W+ i% H2 g/ [% B; W
a computational mathematics tool. If you’re a professor doing theoretical work, at3 O8 e$ ]+ K$ W7 ?2 a& r
one point or another you are going to be working on a project where analytical
# ]. ]; K" L0 s* D9 K+ [$ Zsolutions are not possible. If you work in industry or in a national lab, chances are" s" ], O% u1 o! {
the work you’re doing can’t be done by hand and will require a numerical solution.* P) T0 ]( x2 w
MATLAB is widely used in universities, in national laboratories and at private
% F# k% o$ q3 D1 @' zcompanies. Knowing MATLAB will definitely be a plus on your resume.
2 x6 g6 i: e7 p6 J: e) ~( rNow a word about this particular book. This book is aimed squarely at the MATLAB
1 P9 m- {! e V( Rbeginner. The purpose is not to wow experts with complicated solutions built with+ [: u p. O H- Y
MATLAB. Rather, the purpose of this book is to introduce a person new to MATLAB
( j! h n. J9 N5 T! \: Oto the world of computational mathematics. The approach taken here is to set about! D4 o. I) @6 s. m
learning how to use MATLAB to do some basic things-plot functions, solve algebraic( j$ w7 ~9 E: [' w) B
equations, compute integrals and solve differential equations for example. So the

you have never touched MATLAB before or are having lot’s of trouble with it, this# M7 t; b( J( ~
book will help you build a basic skill set that can be used to master it. The book is a
. b/ J: T. s+ J7 K4 Tstepping stone to mastery and nothing more. |
