| Introduction | Objectives:
|
| Importing Data | Objective: Data files come in many formats, from spreadsheets to plain text. This first section of the course dissects the many facets of reading files of various types and formats. Emphasis is given to irregular text files, which contain a mixture of data types, delimiters, and headers.
|
| Organizing Data | Objective: There are many ways to store data in the MATLAB environment. This section explores the tradeoffs involved in choosing an appropriate data type, highlighting the built in data types of cell arrays and structures. Additionally, this section demonstrates some of the common techniques for organizing and processing data.
|
| Visualizing Data | Objective: A good visualization can effectively communicate the results of an analysis. Using the plotting capabilities of MATLAB, this section aims to investigate many different techniques for presenting data. Highlighted are techniques for annotating and modifying standard plots into publication-quality graphics.
|
| Exporting Data | Objective: A final stage of the of a successful data analysis includes the publication of results. Whether publishing a presentation, a report, or a simple text file for further analysis, this section will help in outputting results in various formats. Additional guidance in publishing to various graphical formats is also a feature of this section.
