Introduction To Command line Programming with Matlab for Unix Welcome to IT’s seminar on Matlab Sam Gordji, ccsam@olemiss.edu Weir 107
General Information • Questions will be answered during the seminar • What is Matlab? • Matlab does mathematical operations • Its competitors are Mathematica, Maple, and a few others • Matlab is available on willow and sweetgum
General Information • Email contact • Email your questions to assist@olemiss.edu • Any user with an account on willow or sweetgum may access Matlab • Please fill out the performance report and leave your email address so we may contact you for follow up questions
Introduction • Matlab is a very powerful and user friendly package that most students from many disciplines may use • Programming with Matlab is simple • To activate Matlab in willow or sweetgum enter: matlab • The University has a few modules of Matlab to find out about various “Toolboxes” enter: “ver” while Matlab is activated, enter version to obtain the version
Introduction • A good place to start on Matlab: http://mathworks.com • Mathlab is flexible and mostly uses familiar mathematical and engineering notations
Introduction • Matlab’s main function is to perform Mathematical operations, Matlab may be called by other programs • Matlab is the only package of its kind that creates “executables”
Today’s Topic • Introduction to Matlab (Command Line) • Activate Matlab on willow • Perform simple operation • Use of “m” files • Examples of Matlab (test0.m) • Creating graphs test03.m (*.jpg) files with Matlab • Saving output (test4.m) with Matlab
