Learning Goals:
Students will learn the basic operation working with MATLAB software. Student will experience matrix operation using MATLAB, and discover properties of Matrices and its operations by interacting with MATLAB. Students will learn about some applications of Linear Algebra and doing examples to represent concepts covered in their Linear Algebra course. Students will learn how to create m-files and use them for simple programming in MATLAB. Students will learn how to use MATLAB to simulate and repeat some of the algorithms used in their linear algebra course. Students will learn how to create two or three dimensional graphs in MATLAB.
