MATLAB is a powerful, high-level programing language for numerical computation, visualization, and application development. First, this workshop introduces the MATLAB environment. Next, this workshop covers working with arrays and matrices, loops and conditional statements, writing your own functions, working with files, and visualizing your data. We will use MATLAB to solve differential equations and conduct basic computational systems modeling. This workshop is suitable for those with or without coding experience in other languages. No computational knowledge is assumed and no prerequisite workshops are required; however, the Unix workshop (workshop 1) may be a useful foundation.
