Math and Programming with MATLAB

As already mentioned, Module 3 demonstrates perspectives in learning and exploring mathematics that otherwise might look too abstract and tedious to some students. From another hand, a number of useful programming examples is contained there. Our teaching experience show that the students are usually impressed and inspired when their boring object of, say, Analytical Geometry become rotating or pulsating on computer screen… (see Fig. 4.6) The book ends with optional Module 4 where the students learn how to "dress" their programs into a Graphical User Interface, GUI. Again, the students are usually happy to complete programming in a modern Windows-like form. The latter may be quite difficult to them in other languages but is made very easily in the MATLAB. The new programming skills and knowledge are to be extended in their future programming courses taught in National Aviation University. Authors wish to express their gratitude to the Math Works Inc. for their promotion of this book in a form of granting v. 7.1 of their wonderful software. We thank Mrs. Courtney Esposito for her constant attention to our work. Topographical conventions of this book. To contrast with regular text, MATLAB' commands and programs are typed in a smaller font in italic (except symbols like (, ], : etc.). These, typed after the prompt symbols >>, mean a command that is issued from Command Line. Example: >> sqrt(2+sqrt(3)). Similar text without the prompt may correspond to MATLAB' reply, for example Error: Missing operator, comma, or semicolon. If a line of commands does not fit to page width, its continuation is placed on next line but aligned to the page' right border. Navigation through MATLAB' menu is typed in bold and italic such as ViewCommand Window. Keyboard keys are framed like Enter. New terms introduced are typed italic; their meaning is often self evident but students are advised to inquiry them in dictionaries or in specialized handbooks. The sign  (glasses) labels optional materials, or that for advanced students.

Matlab as a teaching, learning and motivating tool for engineering mathematics

Mathematical Modelling, 2020

The present paper describes the fact that revised and pedagogically justifiable implementation of CAS systems (e.g. Matlab system) is a great contribution to teaching higher mathematics. It brings practical applications to mathematics teaching and thus enhances motivation and students’ interest in the discussed topic. The Computer Algebra System, popularly known as CAS, is a modern computing technology that provides great learning and teaching opportunities to both students as well as instructors. MATLAB is one of the most popular CAS programs that is widely used in mathematics classrooms especially at the university level. As more and more universities are adopting its use in education, it is necessary to study and analyze how the software could be used in teaching and learning of mathematics. It has been shown to be a technology that could be used for developing mathematical thinking, concepts and skills, and a source of motivating students for learning mathematics. It is also a v...

Application of Mathlab Applications in Improving Student Competence Umsu Mathematics Education Study Program Numerical Method Course 2019-2020 Academic Year

International Journal of Educational Review, Law And Social Sciences (IJERLAS), 2021

This study aims to describe the role of MATHLAB software in numerical method lectures, improve students' ability to solve numerical problems through learning assisted by MATHLAB software, improve students' abilities in formulating algorithms through learning assisted by MATHLAB software, improve students' abilities in programming through assisted learning MATLAB software; and describing student responses after numerical learning assisted by MATLAB software. This research is a quantitative research. To prove the hypothesis and answer the problems in this study, several statistical tests were carried out as follows:1. Test the description of the data, namely: making a data frequency table, testing the average value, and standard deviation.2. Prerequisite test, namely: normality test with Liliefors table and homogeneity test.3. Hypothesis testing, namely: statistical tests to see how much improvement in student competence is using the MATLAB software application in the nume...

A Proposal Study for Designing and Introducing Automated Tools and Procedures Incorporating MATLAB Package for Undergraduate Basic Discipline Studies

Research study to elicit and design a simplified method in order to model the scientific concepts and basics for many learning fields and disciplines such as Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Statistics, Electronics, Communications, Systems & Control, etc using the MATLAB package that has been taught in Universities and in High Schools to establish a new generation of graduates by using scientific and modern academic curricula. First year Mathematics was taken as an example subject in this study and could be generalized to the other subjects. Graphical user interfaces (GUI) program developed and implemented to solve almost all the problems that first year Mathematics curriculum contains. This proposal is cost effective and its plan is technically feasible since the fulfillment of this goal would revolutionize teaching and education, and it will make it possible for many more students to learn, do, and appreciate MATLAB programming, since MATLAB would build the skills that are necessary to compete for the jobs of tomorrow.

Introduction to MATLAB for Researchers and Engineering Students

This article explainsthe technicalsoftware known as MATLAB and the simulation techniques. MATLAB has many advantages compared to most conventional computer language for solving technical problems. Is has an interactive system whose basic data element is an array that does not require dimensioning. This article gives any user a guide on how to operate the software and simulate with it as well etc. Introduction MATLAB stands for MATrixLABoratory and the software is built up around vectors and matrices. MATLAB is a high-performance language for technical computing. This makes the software particularly useful for linear algebra but MATLAB is also a great tool for solving algebraic and differential equations and for numerical integration. MATLAB has powerful graphic tools and can produce nice pictures in both 2D and 3D. It is also a programming language, and is one of the easiest programming languages for writing mathematical programs. MATLAB also has some tool boxes useful for signal processing, image processing, optimization, etc

Analysis of Matlab

This paper gives us the knowledge of basic MATLAB and how to use it, actually it is an iterative program for numerical computation and data visualisation.
