This course is the first part of the lecture series on MATLAB software. It takes you through various basic commands, variables, vectors, arrays, matrices, decision making and loop control statement. Various examples are given to explain various concepts and features of the software and for practice so that expertise can be gained in handling the software.
We start with Introduction to GUI of MATLAB Software, how to use the editor and command window.
Second section deals with Basic Commands of MATLAB. Various commands like clc, clear all and how to add, subtract, divide and multiply using MATLAB software is explained here.
Third section is all about Arrays and Matrices in MATLAB. How to insert Arrays and Matrices are explained. Also operations that can be performed on Arrays and Matrices are explained in detail.
Fourth section deals with MATLAB Commands. List of various commands used in MATLAB are given in this section. How to use MATLAB variables are also explained here.
Fifth section is about the Decision Making Techniques used in MATLAB. Six types of decision making techniques are explained here namely, if.. end statement, if..else..end statement, if..elseif..elseif..else..end statement, nested if statements, switch statements and nested switch statement.
Sixth section deals with Loop Control Statement in MATLAB. While loop, for loop and nested loops are explained. Also break and continue statements are listed.
Lastly we study about MATLAB Vectors which deals with how to write Vectors in MATLAB and the various operations .
Advanced version of this course will be available in the next part of this series Advanced MATLAB. Join that course to learn the advanced concepts of the software.
