An Introduction to Programming and Numerical Methods in MATLAB by Steve Otto , James P. Denier (Free PDF)
An elementary first course for students in mathematics and engineering
Practical in approach: examples of code are provided for students to debug, and tasks – with full solutions – are provided at the end of each chapter
Includes a glossary of useful terms, with each term supported by an example of the syntaxes commonly encountered.
MATLAB is a powerful programme, which naturally lends itself to the rapid implementation of most numerical algorithms. This text, which uses MATLAB, gives a detailed overview of structured programming and numerical methods for the undergraduate student
The book covers numerical methods for solving a wide range of problems, from integration to the numerical solution of differential equations or the stimulation of random processes. Examples of programmes that solve problems directly, as well as those that use MATLAB’s high-level commands are given.
Each chapter includes extensive examples and tasks, at varying levels of complexity. For practice, the early chapters include programmes that require debugging by the reader, while full solutions are given for all the tasks. The book also includes:
a glossary of MATLAB commands
Designed as a text for a first course in programming and algorithm design, as well as in numerical methods courses, the book will be of benefit to a wide range of students from mathematics and engineering, to commerce.
