Appendix: Matlab
MATLAB is an interactive program for matrix computations. The original version of MATLAB, short for matrix laboratory, was developed by Cleve Moler from the Linpack and Eispack software libraries. Over the years MATLAB has undergone a series of expansions and revisions. Today it is the leading software for scientific computations. The MATLAB software is distributed by the MathWorks, Inc. of Natick, Massachusetts. Some universities have MATLAB licenses that allow student use. For those that do not, individual student licenses may be purchased at affordable prices. In addition to widespread use in industrial and engineering settings, MATLAB has become a standard instructional tool for undergraduate linear algebra courses.
