Starting MATLAB
This book is intended to help you start learning MATLAB. It contains a number of examples, so you should run MATLAB and follow along. To run MATLAB on a PC or Mac, double-click on the MATLAB icon. To run MATLAB on a UNIX system, typematlab
at the operating system prompt. To quit MATLAB at any time, type quit
at the MATLAB prompt.
If you feel you need more assistance, type help
