Emphasizing problem-solving skills throughout this very successful book, Stephen Chapman introduces the MATLAB® language and shows how to use it to solve typical technical problems. The book teaches MATLAB® as a technical programming language showing students how to write clean, efficient, and well-documented programs. It makes no pretense at being a complete description of all of MATLAB®’s hundreds of functions. Instead, it teaches students how to locate any desired function with MATLAB®’s extensive on line help facilities. Overall, students develop problem-solving skills and are equipped for future courses and careers using the power of MATLAB®.
Features
Emphasis on good programming practices such as top-down design, within a MATLAB context therefore teaching programming and MATLAB simultaneously.
Good Programming Practice Boxes: These boxes highlight good programming practices when they are introduced for the convenience of the student.
Programming Pitfall Boxes: These boxes highlight common errors so that they can be avoided.
Quizzes are provided for self-testing, with answers at the back of the book.
Emphasis is also placed on proper debugging techniques which teach how to approach debugging programs including the use of the integrated debugger.

Stephen J. Chapman
Stephen J. Chapman is currently Manager of Technical Systems for British Aerospace Australia, in Melbourne, Australia. In this position, he provides technical direction and design authority for the work of younger engineers within the company. He is also continuing to teach at local universities on a part-time basis. Mr. Chapman is a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (and several of its component societies). He is also a member of the Association for Computing Machinery and the Institution of Engineers (Australia). From 1975 to 1980, he served as an officer in the U. S. Navy, assigned to teach Electrical Engineering at the U.S. Naval Nuclear Power School in Orlando, Florida. From 1980 to 1982, he was affiliated with the University of Houston, where he ran the power systems program in the College of Technology. From 1982 to 1988 and from 1991 to 1995, he served as a Member of the Technical Staff of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Lincoln Laboratory, both at the main facility in Lexington, Massachusetts, and at the field site on Kwajalein Atoll in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. While there, he did research in radar signal processing systems. He ultimately became the leader of four large operational range instrumentation radars at the Kwajalein field site (TRADEX, ALTAIR, ALCOR, and MMW). From 1988 to 1991, Mr. Chapman was a research engineer in Shell Development Company in Houston, Texas, where he did seismic signal processing research. He was also affiliated with the University of Houston, where he continued to teach on a part-time basis.
