Description
Matlab, as Pratap (mechanical engineering, Indian Institute of Science, India) explains, "is a software package for high-performance numerical computation and visualization." In his introduction to use of the program, he begins with a tour of the most accessible functions, later providing chapters on interactive computation, scripts and functions, applications, graphics, errors, and other topics.
