Introduction to MATLAB
MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory) is a technical computing environment
used to-
• Analyze and visualize data,
• Develop algorithms, and
• Create models and applications.
Many different tools and products within the MATLAB environment are
used extensively in engineering, and in scientific and academic
research.
History of MATLAB Foundation
Cleve Moler, a math professor at the
UNM, in the late 1970s, created
MATLAB by compiling his FORTRAN
codes to help his students solving
matrix algebra problems.
Later, Jack Little and Steve Bangert
reprogrammed MATLAB in C and added
new features, making it a commercial
product. Together, they founded The
MathWorks in 1984, which continues to
develop and distribute MATLAB globally.
