 Great for learning matlab, or for general reference December 12, 2005

This is one of the best books on Matlab I have read. Mastering Matlab takes you step by step on the basics of Matlab and even goes on to some more advanced topics. Once you get past the basics in the first couple of chapters, you can skip ahead to the chapter with the topic you are interested in.
The book gives clear expanations and lots of examples. One of my university professors recommended this book to me.
If you want to learn matlab, get this book. As the title suggests, after reading the book you will master matlab.
If you're not sure about buying this book, I would suggest going to your university library and checking it out. I kept borrowing it out over and over, until I decided I should buy my own copy so that I always have a handy reference at hand.
MatLab programming November 3, 2006

I use this book everyday. It is easy to find what you need right away. Although, MatLab has demos that you can use to write programs or m-scripts, the book has features that are not in the demos that will make writing scripts much easier. It doesn't go into great detail with more difficult plots but allows for the those who just need 1-D, 2-D and simple 3-D plots to plot data points easily and fast. This is definitely the bible for first time users of MatLab.

The caliber of writing in this book is in the 99.9 percentile. It must be read in pages and not just skimmed. That is its power and its point.
By the way, if you are functionally illiterate neither this book nor any other on MATLAB can help you. Sad but true. So there's little to no point in a wild rant. Instead, please blame your school, your friends, maybe your parents. Something like that. Thanks.

I purchased this textbook for the matlab course taken in university. I always can find something interesting or useful inside of it, and knowledge inside of it was all written in details.
This book was very helpful February 26, 2006

I found this book to be very comprehensive with many examples and a clear explanation of concepts. I highly recommend it for anyone without matlab experience. It has helped me a great deal with my coursework.
