MATLAB is a widely used analysis tool by scientists and engineers. MATLAB has many built-in graphing capabilities and analysis functions, including matrix multiplication and matrix inverse. It can be run interactively, which greatly helps checking & debugging. This text emphasizes practical applications in engineering, physics, mathematics and biology. OCTAVE is a free program that runs almost all the MATLAB code in this text. There are a few differences between OCTAVE and MATLAB implementations. These differences will be described where they occur.
