The Best Book to Learn the MATLAB Software

"Mastering MATLAB 7" - D. Hanselman & B. Littlefield
(2005 Publisher: Pretice Hall, NJ)

As we introduced earlier, MATLAB ( www.mathworks.com ) is
an almost essential tool for Scientists and Engineers. It stores
all data in Matrix form [so, a scalar quantity or a single number
like 2.3 or 5 is also treated as a matrix, a 1 X 1 matrix] and does
all calculations through matrix manipulations. Matlab succedded
both as a programming language and data visualization tool.

It is an excellent software and can be used even by Middle school
students. There are so many features that its manual, available
in both hard copy and electronic form, exceeds 5000 pages of
information. This is overwhelming if you are starting on your own.

The book we introduce in this posting solves this problem in the
best possible way. We have been fans of this book since its first
edition for MATLAB 5.0 came out in 1998.

Mathworks inc. released MATLAB version 7.0 a few months back
and this book's new edition also came up - with more pages and
more examples and tutorials.
