Getting started with Matlab


This video demonstration will show you how to get started. The Matlab language allows you to assign values to variables using built-in functions, and naturally you can create and include your own simple or complex functions.

Matlab is an array-based language where variables can be scalars, vectors or matrices. You use brackets to create arrays or matrices; you can use the colon operator to simplify the creation of vectors. 

You can use the ‘command history’ window or press up-down arrows to get recently (or not so-recently) entered commands. Adding a semicolon at the end of any command avoids outputs to be echoed to the command window. You also learn about the ‘workspace’ window, where you can see the values of your variables.
