MATLAB® and Excel® are the two most important computational programs in the engineering marketplace today and all engineers will call on one or both programs to assist in problem solving. Engineering Computations: An Introduction to MATLAB® and Excel® addresses the challenge of integrating both programs in one course by being the first text to include both MATLAB and Excel in the same text and work students through both programs in an easy-to-understand tutorial approach.
While it is important for students to learn the mechanics of using the relevant tools, those tools can change so the focus of this text is on the fundamentals of engineering computing: algorithm development, selection of appropriate tools, documentation of solutions, and verification and interpretation of results. |
