ETE349 Introduction in Matlab

ETE349 Introduction in Matlab is an online-course that teaches the basics of MATLAB and practical experience of working with the software. The course can both be seen as a preparation to a large number of university courses where Matlab is used, and as a possibility to learn a powerful engineering software for numerical computations and visualizations. The course has the same content as TSRT04 but is given and examined online.
