The books listed in the Authors and Sources section have some very good materials. For the 2021-2022 school year, I used those sources plus my own materials to teach my MATLAB programming course. In order to make it more convenient for both the students and the teacher, I have assembled these materials into a single textbook. I felt that many chapters could benefit from additional examples and exercises, which I added. Additional topics were also added to many chapters.
The following outlines how each source was used in assembling this textbook.
