Matlab

A Practical Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving

Beschreibung

MATLAB: A Practical Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving aims to provide readers with the knowledge of the fundamentals of programming concepts and the skills and techniques needed for basic problem solving using MATLAB as the vehicle. MATLAB is software that functions to complete a wide range of tasks, from mathematical procedures to three-dimensional imaging. The software also has a complete programming structure that allows programmers to use their own specifications in customizing programs. The text has the following key features: Systematic approach Side-by-side programming concepts and built-in functions File input/output User-defined functions Advanced programming concepts Problem-solving tools Plots, imaging and graphical user interfaces Vectorized code The book is composed of 15 chapters, which discuss MATLAB and its programs, selection and loop statements, string manipulation, data structures, advanced functions, advanced plotting procedures, matrix representation of linear algebraic equations, basic statistics and indexing, and advanced mathematics. This source will be invaluable for engineers, engineering novices, and students learning to program and model in MATLAB.

Presents programming concepts and MATLAB built-in functions side-by-side, giving students the ability to program efficiently and exploit the power of MATLAB to solve problems
In depth coverage of file input/output, a topic essential for many engineering applications
Systematic, step-by-step approach, building on concepts throughout the book, facilitating easier learning
Sections on 'common pitfalls' and 'programming guidelines' direct students towards best practice
New to this edition:

More engineering applications help the reader learn Matlab in the context of solving technical problems
New and revised end of chapter problems
Stronger coverage of loops and vectorizing in a new chapter, chapter 5
Updated to reflect current features and functions of the current releaseent release of Matlab

Rezensionen

"This book is an excellent way to learn quickly how to use MATLAB.The most significant changes in this edition include a new chapter on vectorized code and manipulating vectors, concepts used in image processing, modified and new end-of-chapter exercises, and the use of MATLAB version R2011a." --Electrical Insulation Magazine, January 2013

"This book is an excellent way to learn quickly how to use MATLAB.Anyone who wants to learn the basis of MATLAB quickly should own this book." --IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine

"In-depth coverage is given to input/output, a topic that is fundamental to many engineering applications. New to this edition are more engineering applications to help the reader learn MATLAB in the context

of solving technical problems, new and revised end-of-chapter problems, stronger coverage of loops and vectorizing in a new chapter and updates to reflect current features and functions of the current release of MATLAB." --Lunar and Planetary Information

"Assuming no knowledge of programming, this book presents both programming concepts and MATLAB's built-n functions, providing a perfect platform for exploiting its extensive capabilities for tackling engineering problems. The book starts with programming concepts such as variables, assignments, input/output, and selection statements, moves onto loops, and then solves problems using both the 'programming concepts' and the 'power of MATLAB' side by side. In-depth coverage is given to input/output, a topic that is fundamental to many engineering applications. New to this edition are more engineering applications to help the reader learn MATLAB in the context of solving technical problems, new and revised end-of-chapter problems, stronger coverage of loops and vectorizing in a new chapter, and updates to reflect current features and functions of the current release of MATLAB." --Lunar and Planetary Information Bulletin, December 2011

"This is the perfect book for anyone wanted to acquire a secure understanding of MATLAB fundaments and master its language. Many engineers and scientists now use MATLAB and Simulink to solve real-world problems. With the help of this book, they will be able to exploit the full power of MATLAB much sooner than they would using the online manuals, and be able to solve real problems much more quickly." --IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine
