MATLAB Help

Not surprisingly, MathWorks has a web site. If you would like to check it out (it may have some cool stuff that you could use in the present and the future), click here.

Yet another web site to check is that of William F. Moss, a professor at Clemson University. When visiting Professor Moss's site, look under the section entitled MATLAB.

A more extensive help file, due to Pat Miller at Brown University, is available as a postscript file. Click here if you wish to download this file. If you are not familiar with postscript files, when downloading this file you must save it as foo.ps. Otherwise, you will not be able to properly print the file. In addition to the tutorial, Pat also supplies some M-files. If you wish to get these, click here. This is not a postscript file, so there is no restriction on what you call it.

John Polking of Rice University has developed a nice package called Phase Plane. A gzipped listing of the files is available here. Once you've downloaded the file into your favorite Matlab directory, execute the commands:

• gunzip phase_plane.tar.gz
• tar xf phase_plane.tar
