This textbook is ideal for MATLAB/Introduction to Programming courses in both Engineering and Computer Science departments. It is also a suitable introduction for beginning programmers. Engineering... This description may be from another edition of this product.
From what I can tell the book serves well to supplement the instruction I receive in class. If I were trying to learn from scratch outside the class room I might look elsewhere as the function definitions are sparing to say the least. I find my self more frequent than not looking for 'help' online in order to figure functions and their associated arguments out. If your taking a MATLAB class, you should probably pick this up; if your trying to learn from scratch look up [...] and surf the web for particular subject matter. If the book had three times as much in the way of examples and a thorough / exhaustive listing of functions, and their arguments I would probably end up keeping this for later courses where I will need to analyze data, simulate what not and make for a nice presentation. 3.5 stars (rounded up)
