MATLAB provides an interactive programming interface for numerical computation and data visualization making it the default framework used for analysis, design and research in many domains of science and industry. Programming in MATLAB is intended as an aid to engineers and scientists with no prior programming expertise. The book focuses on the systematic development of practical programming skills through MATLAB language constructs, backed by several well-designed examples and exercises. Designed to be as much a MATLAB reference tool for researchers in varied fields as it is a guide for undergraduate readers, the book builds on the concepts sequentially as it progresses through the chapters. Each chapter is complete, independent of the book's remaining contents. Thus, for teaching purposes, one can suitably the relevant portions.
