    Assistant Professor

    Introduction
    MATLAB Stands for MATrix LABoratory
    Initially developed by a lecturer Cleve Moler, at the

    University of New Mexico in 1970s to help students learn


    linear algebra.
    It was later marketed and further developed under MathWorks Inc.
    (founded in 1984) www.mathworks.com
    Matlab is a software package which can be used to perform
    analysis and solve mathematical and engineering problems.
    It has excellent programming features and graphics capability
    easy to learn and flexible.
    Available in many operating systems Windows, Macintosh, Unix,
    DOS
    It has several tooboxes to solve specific problems.

    MATLAB Functionality
    Built-in Functionality includes
    Matrix manipulation and linear algebra
    Data analysis
    Exploration and visualisation
    Algorithm development
    Modelling, simulation, and prototyping
    Scientific and engineering graphics
    Add-on toolboxes provide
    Image

    processing
    Signal Processing
    Optimization
    Genetic Algorithms
    and hundreds of other functions

    MATLAB consists of
    The MATLAB language
    The MATLAB working environment
    Handle Graphics
    The MATLAB function library.
    The MATLAB Application Program Interface

    (API)

    Some features of MATLAB

    Everything in MATLAB is a matrix !


    MATLAB is an interpreted language, no compilation
    needed (but possible)
    MATLAB does not need any variable declarations,
    no dimension statements, has no packaging, no
    storage allocation, no pointers
    Programs can be run step by step, with full access
    to all variables, functions etc.

    MATLAB variables
    Matlab treats all variables as matrices. For our

    purposes a matrix can be thought of as an


    array, in fact, that is how it is stored.
    Vectors are special forms of matrices and
    contain only one row OR one column.
    Scalars are matrices with only one row AND
    one column

    Identifiers in Matlab
    Have not to be previously declared
    Variable names can contain up to 63

    characters
    Variable names must start with a letter
    followed by letters, digits, and underscores.
    Variable names are case sensitive

    Matlab Special
    Variables
    ans
    Default variable name for results
    pi
    Value of
    eps
    Smallest incremental number
    inf
    Infinity
    NaN Not a number e.g. 0/0
    realmin
    The smallest usable positive real

    number
    realmax
    number

    The largest usable positive real
