Isihara P. Introductory MatLAB Lab Manual: Humanitarian Data Analysis and Mathematical Models

Amazon Digital Services, 2017. - 200p. - ASIN: B01MZGW5PLExploratory data analysis and Calculus based models presented in the form of
MatLAB labs adds a new dimension to basic quantitative skills, statistics, and cal-
culus courses which cover differential equations or math modeling. Assuming that
many students have never used MatLAB before, we begin with an introductory
MatLAB Beginner's Guide" to provide the bare essentials needed to work on the
ensuing labs. All of the labs have been designed to stimulate thinking about a major humanitar-
ian problem while teaching basic MatLAB programming skills foundational for more
advanced MatLAB modeling. Each of these applications is explored at a depth not usually seen in traditional textbook applications. We hope this manual convinces you that
quantitative methods are useful in understanding humanitarian problems, motivates
you to continue your study of mathematics which can help contribute to solutions, and
encourages you to connect with humanitarian organizations and individuals ghting
against the unacceptable status quo. Your purchase of this manual is appreciated. All royalties from this book are
being donated to World Vision, an international humanitarian organization with this
philosophy When you go too far for the vulnerable and the ignored... beautiful
things happen."
