Very Good

The product and services were excellent. I received what I requested. In my experience I recommend this seller.

Great introductory book on Matlab

This is a very good book for novice to learn Matlab. It is clear and concise and with some work-out engineering examples. For beginners to learn Matlab, this book is better than " An Engineer's Guide to Matlab" by Edward B. Magrab. But if you already know some basics of Matlab and want more details and advanced functions or egineering examples, " An Engineer's Guide to Matlab" is a better choice.

Excellent introduction to MATLAB

This is an excellent introductory book to MATLAB. The examples provided is a great motivation for engineers who tend to shun away from computer programming. During my freshmen year, computer programming was taught by the computer science dept. Their method of teachin is a roller coaster ride for many engineers which resulted many of us, including me to have a phobia in programming. However, Palm has explained the use of MATLAB and programming with clear examples and some interesting exercise to keep one hook onto the subject as well as realizing the importance of MATLAB and programming in engineering. Therefore, this is a highly recommended book for those who intend to learn more about MATLAB which is an important software for engineers.

My first book in Matlab

This books is very good as an introductory for Matlab users, espcially engineers.. It contains alot of enineering problems solved using Matlab. It is good for freshmen students and engineers. It can be studied as a first course in computer programming, rather than Fortran, C or Pascal. I am a lectureur in Electrical Engineering Department. I would recomend it to be studied using this text book.
