• Solving partial differential equations
• Simulation of engineering systems

Strengths of MATLAB

• MATLAB is relatively easy to learn.


• MATLAB code is optimized to be relatively quick when performing matrix operations.
• MATLAB may behave like a calculator or as a programming language.
• MATLAB is interpreted, errors are easier to fix.

Starting MATLAB:

Start MATLAB by clicking on it in the Start menu.


You will see the MATLAB window as shown in Fig. given below:

Desktop Tools
1. Command Window
Use the Command Window to enter variables and run functions and M-files.

Figure 2. Command window

2. Command History:
Statements you enter in the Command Window are logged in the Command History.
In the Command History, you can view previously run statements, and copy and execute selected
statements.
Enter a command “commandhistory” in Command Window to see commands history.
