Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives
The aim of the course is to provide knowledge and practical skills in MATLAB as a tool for numerical data processing and visualization. Students will learn the basics of syntax, commands, modeling and work in GUI environment. They will learn to create scripts, functions and create self-executing .exe applications usable in MS Windows environment. MATLAB provides users with not only graphical and computational tools, but also extensive function libraries along with a powerful fourth-generation programming language. At seminars, students learn how to use this tool and use its extensive capabilities in calculations, function rendering, 2D and 3D modeling and other activities.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to:
- orientate in MATLAB environment;
- create simple scripts and calculations applications;
- Render functions in 2D and 3D.
Syllabus
