This is a simple, concise and useful book, explaining MATLAB for freshmen in engineering. MATLAB is presently a globally available standard computational tool for engineers and scientists. The terminology, syntax and the use of the programming language are well defined and the organisation of the material makes it easy to locate information and navigate through the textbook. This new text emphasises that students do not need to write loops to solve many problems. The MATLAB "find" command with its relational and logical operators can be used instead of loops in many cases. This was mentioned in Palm's previous MATLAB texts, but receives more emphasis in this MATLAB 6 edition, starting with Chapter 1, and re-emphasised in Chapter 4.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent introduction to MATLAB,
By A Customer
This review is from: Introduction to Matlab 6 for Engineers (Paperback)
This is an excellent introductory book to MATLAB. The examples provided is a great motivation for engineers who tend to shun away from computer programming. During my freshmen year, computer programming was taught by the computer science dept. Their method of teachin is a roller coaster ride for many engineers which resulted many of us, including me to have a phobia in programming. However, Palm has explained the use of MATLAB and programming with clear examples and some interesting exercise to keep one hook onto the subject as well as realizing the importance of MATLAB and programming in engineering. Therefore, this is a highly recommended book for those who intend to learn more about MATLAB which is an important software for engineers.

My first book in Matlab,
This review is from: Introduction to Matlab 6 for Engineers (Paperback)
This books is very good as an introductory for Matlab users, espcially engineers.. It contains alot of enineering problems solved using Matlab. It is good for freshmen students and engineers. It can be studied as a first course in computer programming, rather than Fortran, C or Pascal. I am a lectureur in Electrical Engineering Department. I would recomend it to be studied using this text book.
