Books to read for Matlab, C++, and Circuits?

[JKJ]

Hi I am an undergraduate EE student into my 3-4th year.
I feel like my fundamentals are not so good at times and I want to improve.

I want some recommendations on what books to read to really help improve my fundamentals. I really don't like the textbooks we are reading. They are just too broad sometimes and not really to the point.

I am looking for books for C++, Matlab, and circuits.

Q1: I found some books online. How are these to re-study fundamentals? I haven't found one for circuits.

• Matlab: A Practical Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving by Stormy Attaway
• The C++ Programming Language, 4th Edition by Bjarne

Q2: So... any good recommendations? How are the "dummies" series?

MATLAB is used a lot in signal processing and control system and there are a couple of online books:

https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/MATLAB_Programming
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Signals_and_Systems
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Control_Systems

You could get a book on signal processing or control systems and then as you work through the book problems using MATLAB you could consult with the mathworks.com site for how to solve specific issues that come up during problem solving.
