Written for researchers and students undertaking courses in research methods, statistics, and programming, MATLAB Blues: How Behavioral Scientists and Others Can Learn From Mistakes for Better, Happier Programming is a comprehensive introduction to MATLAB. The book identifies many of the common mistakes and pitfalls associated with using MATLAB, and shows users how they can learn from these mistakes to be better programmers.
Each chapter addresses one of the basic principles of MATLAB, like matrices, calculations, contingencies, plotting, input-output, and graphics, and then identifies areas that are problematic, as well as potential errors that can occur. This not only provides the reader with the fundamentals that a MATLAB programmer needs to know, but also with a series of examples and explanations of how to avoid and remedy common mistakes.
The book is accompanied by an array of sample code that is available on the book's website, which can be used and manipulated in conjunction with the textbook.
