- Gives a hands-on overview of Matlab 7.
- Thorough treatment of Matlab mathematics, including the linear algebra and numerical analysis functions and the differential equation solvers.
- A new chapter, Case Studies, presents more substantial examples of the use of Matlab in a variety of modern applications.
- A new appendix lists the 111 most useful Matlab functions.
- Describes Matlab 7, but can also be used with earlier versions.
- A Web page for the book provides example M-files, updates, and links to Matlab resources.
