Engineering Computation with MATLAB. David M. Smith

This textbook is ideal for MATLAB/Introduction to Programming courses in both Engineering and Computer Science departments. Engineering Computation with MATLAB introduces the power of computing to engineering students who have no programming experience. The book places the fundamental tenets of computer programming into the context of MATLAB, employing hands-on exercises, examples from the engineering industry, and a variety of core tools to increase programming proficiency and capability. With this knowledge, students are prepared to adapt learned concepts to other programming languages.
