Information on MATLAB

MATLAB
The MATLAB program is written by a company called The MathWorks. Their other main product is an engineering program called Simulink.

MATLAB Central File Exchange
This is part of the MathWorks web site for MATLAB. The Gallery contains many examples of the kind of computer graphics that MATLAB can do (MATLAB is a very sophisticated visualization program) and there are some examples of simple games written in the MATLAB programming language (MATLAB is also a sophisticated programming environment).

MATLAB -> Getting Started
This is a link to MATLAB's online documentation. This link leads to a lot of information. It is best to start out with the section called Manipulating Matrices (use the arrows in the blue bands at the top and bottom of the pages to step through the lessons).

MATLAB Tutorials
A Practical Introduction to Matlab
These are links to some more tutorials on MATLAB. The first link is to a fairly basic tutorial. The second link has an introductory tutorial and a tutorial specifically for linear algebra. The third link is to a tutorial that introduces quite a bit of MATLAB's features.

Numerical Computing with MATLAB by Cleve Moler
This is a textbook on Matlab written by the person who invented Matlab. You can download individual chapters from the book.
