The sixth edition of Chapman's MATLAB Programming for Engineers teaches MATLAB as a technical programming language with an emphasis on problem-solving skills. Students learn how to write clean, efficient, and well-documented programs while gaining an understanding of the many practical functions of MATLAB. The first nine chapters support and provide a primary resource for today's introduction to programming and problem solving course for first-year engineering students. The remaining chapters address more advanced topics, such as I/O, object-oriented programming, and Graphical User Interfaces. This serves as a resource for a longer course or as a reference tool for engineering students or practicing engineers who use MATLAB.
