Chapter 1 Introduction to MATLABThis book is an Introduction to two subjects:Matlaband numerical first Chapter introducesMatlabby presenting several programs that inves-tigate elementary, but interesting, mathematical problems. If you already havesome experience programming in another language, we hope that you can see howMatlabworks by simply studying these you want a more comprehensive Introduction , there are many resourcesavailable. You can select theHelptab in the toolstrip atop theMatlabcom-mand window, then selectDocumentation,MATLABandGetting MathWorks Web site, MATLAB Tutorials and Learning Resources[11], offersa number of introductory videos and a PDF manual entitledGetting Started Introduction to MATLAB through a collection of mathematical and com-putational projects is provided by Moler s free onlineExperiments with MATLAB [6].
The roots of this equation are given by the quadratic formula: ϕ = 1 p 5 2. The positive root is the golden ratio. If you have forgotten the quadratic formula, you can ask Matlab to find the roots of the polynomial. Matlab represents a polynomial by the vector of its coefficients, in descending order. So the vector p = [1 -1 -1] represents ...
