Learning MATLAB - A Guide to Tutorials and Books

[Tone L]

Hi,

I saw some threads about MATLAB books already but the seemed a little outdated ~2008. I was curious to know if there was any good books to read as a tutorial of matlab. Potentially a pdf online would be cool as well.

One thing too is I won't be taking the course at school until September therefore i don't have access to the MATLAB software so a book intensively having you use it wouldn't be good...

Really the only way to learn it is to use it. Aside from that, there are plenty of lessons online, but a textbook wouldn't be very useful unless you can actually do the code yourself. The student version is only 50$ if you plan on getting it.

I recommend both of these free online books by Cleve Moler:

Also, you can download PDF versions of the documentation here:
