Introduction To MATLAB Programming (Massachusetts Institute of Technology)
MATLAB Fundamentals MIT's Programming is an ancient but still useful MATLAB course. It is designed to help undergraduates learn the fundamentals of programming in general, and MATLAB in particular. By the end of this online course, you'll have learned enough about MATLAB programming to explore MATLAB and other programming languages in depth on your own. This course does not require any prior programming knowledge.
The course begins with an overview of the MATLAB interface and its purpose. Then, with ease, you'll discover how to use the command prompt. You'll learn about variables, arrays, conditional statements, loops, and functions, among other things. These principles will be applied to data imported from files, and you will finally learn how to plot and visualize data. Following that, you'll learn about scripts, which let you to reuse code for several instances of the same task. Finally, the course concludes with debugging, which is a procedure that every programmer should be familiar with. This course is 1–2 hours long. You’ll learn by watching the lecture videos, reading through the course articles, and working your way through the projects.
