This book aims to introduce students to a number of the essential concepts of MATLAB.

It is designed to assist the learning of Matlab relevant to the syllabuses for the first year mathematics courses in the  Engineering associate degree programs  at the University of South Australia.

• Using MATLAB in Calculus by G. Jensen, and
• Understanding Linear Algebra Using MATLAB by E. & M. Kleinfeld.

It is best to read, attempt and fully comprehend the concepts being introduced in this guide before progressing to similar sections in Jensen. However, it is expected that they will complement each other most beneficially.
