Matlab Tutorials and Documentation

For a demonstration of the simple syntax and broad functionality of Matlab, first start Matlab by clicking the Matlab icon on the NT machines or by typing "matlab" at the prompt on the UNIX machines. Once the application is launched, at the MATLAB prompt type the command "demo". From the menu which will be displayed, run the demos that interest you by following the instructions on the screen.

Although there is on-line help in Matlab, you can find helpful tutorials and quick-start documents at the following links:

1. Manual of basics to get started (University of Florida): MatLab Primer
2. "Getting Started with Matlab" from MathWorks in hyperlinked, cross-referenced PDF document format [Getting Started] and on-line at the URL [On-Line]
3. Official Matlab source PDF documents for technical information from MathWorks.


Matlab m-files
Download the Matlab m-files from the following table and save them in your "working directory".



Title	Brief Descripton
my_cplxdemo	Matlab demo of graphing complex-valued functions
my_cplxgrid	Generates grid of z-values for domain and is used by "my_cplxdemo"
my_cplxmap	Plots the real part of f(z) as the height and colors the resulting surface with the imaginary part. Here red is used for highest values and blue for lowest. This m-file is also used by "my_cplxdemo".
my_cplxroot	Plots the Riemann surface of the n-th roots of complex z using the real part as the height and colors the resulting surface with the imaginary part. Here red is used for highest values and blue for lowest.
my_cplxlog	Plots the Riemann surface of the logarithm of complex z, first using the real part as the height and colors the resulting surface with the imaginary part, and then reverses the rendering for the real and imaginary parts of f.
