Introduction to MATLAB for Engineering
摘要
MATLAB, short for Matrix Laboratory, is a high-level programming and numeric computing environment used extensively by engineers and scientists around the world for its robust functionality and ease of use. Developed by MathWorks, MATLAB was first released in 1984 and has evolved significantly over the years. The current stable release, MATLAB 2025b, as of this writing, continues to expand its capabilities, ensuring that MATLAB remains at the cutting edge of scientific computing. This chapter covers some of the basic capabilities of MATLAB to provide context for later chapters.
