Introduction to Applied Scientific Computing with MATLAB

Content

The course is an introduction to the use of MATLAB as an aid to scientific research. The course will introduce the basic syntax and features and cover basic MATLAB programming and vectorized operations, data input/output, and simple visualization. The course gives students fluency in MATLAB, including some popular toolboxes. Theoretical aspects will be detailed throughout the course, but more complicated issues such as proofs of relevant theorems/schemes will not be presented. Applications will be emphasized.
