9.1 Introduction
MATLAB® is commonly used in several engineering and scientific disciplines where large scale numerical calculations are involved. Sometimes programs may take days to execute. Therefore, it is important to learn how to write such programs efficiently so that they can run in hours or even minutes. MATLAB programs are interpreted, that is, each statement is executed at the command prompt independently of others, and there is no separate binary image generated as in compiled ...
