Detailed Description
In this 7 Hour video series, Jason Gibson teaches you how to use this software package with step-by step video tutorials.
The lessons begin with becoming familiar with the user interface and understanding how to interact with Matlab. You'll then learn about variables, functions, and how to perform basic calculations.
Next, Jason will guide you in learning how to do Algebra, Trigonometry, and Calculus computations both numerically and symbolically. The course wraps up with basic plotting in Matlab. Take the mystery out of Matlab and improve your productivity with the software immediately!
