An Introduction to Programming and Numerical Methods in MATLAB (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This text provides a first course in numerical methods and programming taught through the medium of MATLAB. It is designed to give readers their first exposure to any kind of programming. Exposure to MATLAB, and programming in general, is becoming essential for students. It is the standard tool of choice for many universities - in both the mathematics and engineering departments - and it is also used extensively in industry. The level is elementary, avoiding deep mathematical descriptions, and the practical approach makes it accessible to anyone with a modest mathematical background.

Rezensionen

From the reviews of the first edition:

"This book is an introduction to the numerical methods that are frequently used in science and engineering undergraduate courses and it is based on the MATLAB programming environment. ... The text is easy to read even for those who have little experience with computer practice. ... There are three appendices and the most useful of them, about 70 pages, gives solutions to the tasks at the end of chapters." (Matti Vuorinen, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1076, 2006)
