As the features of MATLAB are becoming more advanced, the literature more confusing and the package harder to navigate, this new text will aim to simplify use of MATLAB 6 by walking the user through the main functions, facilities and applications. It will cover some of the new features, but won't cover any of the advanced features in-depth. Like the previous edition, it will be specifically geared towards the needs of engineering students who are expected to use MATLAB to model and solve real engineering problems.
