Description

MATLAB in Physics is four lecture series in MATLAB that is offered to first year physics undergraduate students.
 
The aim of this lecture series is to introduce students to computational methods in MATLAB to solve problems arising in physics that cannot be solved analytically. No prior knowledge of MATLAB is required. Themes of data analysis, visualization, modeling and programming are explored throughout these lectures.
