Mastering numerical computing with Octave and MATLAB
In short: This MIT OpenCourseWare lesson introduces the fundamentals of numerical computing. Learn to manage command lines, manipulate data vectors, and generate customized plots to visualize mathematical functions effectively.
Part of the MIT 22.15 Essential Numerical Methods course taught by Ian Hutchinson in Fall 2014, this session covers the basics of starting from scratch in Octave and MATLAB. It demonstrates how to organize a workspace by creating adjacent windows for command lines and script files, such as fitting.m. The material also details how to generate data using row and column vectors, adjust parameters, and create various plots, including default line plots and customized point styles.
