Apply MATLAB programming to the mathematical modeling of real-life
problems from a wide range of topics. This pragmatic book shows you how
to solve your programming problems, starting with a brief primer on
MATLAB and the fundamentals of the MATLAB programming language. Then,
you'll build fully working examples and computational models found in
the financial, engineering, and scientific sectors. As part of this
section, you'll cover signal and image processing, as well as GUIs.
After reading and using Practical MATLAB and its accompanying source
code, you'll have the practical know-how and code to apply to your own
MATLAB programming projects.
