This book is to be used as a supplement to a calculus text in the standard calculus II and III courses. Its philosophy is to show how MATLAB can be used as a tool to do the calculus being studied. The goal of the book is to teach the student enough about MATLAB that he or she can use it effectively upon completion of the calculus sequence. MATLAB's Symbolic Math Toolbox is introduced in a few appropriate places, such as in the context of using a computer algebra system to find antiderivatives. The MATLAB instruction contained in this book is given primarily by example, with MATLAB commands described in the context of the application.
