Familiarize yourself with Scilab using this concise practical tutorial that is focused on
writing code to learn concepts. Starting from the basics this book covers array-based
computing plotting and working with files in Scilab. Introduction to Scilab is useful for
industry engineers researchers and students who are looking for open-source solutions for
numerical computation. In this book you will learn by doing avoiding technical jargon which
makes the concepts easy to learn. First you'll see how to run basic calculations absorbing
technical complexities incrementally as you progress toward advanced topics. Throughout the
language is kept simple to ensure that readers at all levels can grasp the concepts. After
reading this book you will come away with sample code that can be re-purposed and applied to
your own projects using Scilab. What You'll Learn Apply sample code to your engineering or
science problems Work with Scilab arrays functions and loops Use Scilab's plotting functions
for data visualization Solve numerical computing and computational engineering problems with
Scilab Who This Book Is For Engineers scientists researchers and students who are new to
Scilab. Some prior programming experience would be helpful but not required.
