Numerical Computing with MATLAB （by Cleve Moler) is a textbook for an introductory course

in numerical methods, Matlab, and technical computing. The emphasis is on in-

formed use of mathematical software. We want you learn enough about the mathe-

matical functions in Matlab that you will be able to use them correctly, appreciate

their limitations, and modify them when necessary to suit your own needs. The

topics include

* introduction to Matlab,

* linear equations,

* interpolation,

* zero and roots,

* least squares,

* quadrature,

* ordinary di?erential equations,

* random numbers,

* Fourier analysis,

* eigenvalues and singular values,

* partial di?erential equations.
