This book combines the teaching of the MATLAB programming language with the presentation and development of carefully selected electrical and computer engineering (ECE) fundamentals. This is what distinguishes it from other books concerned with MATLAB: it is directed specifically to ECE concerns. Students will see, quite explicitly, how and why MATLAB is well suited to solve practical ECE problems.

This book is intended primarily for the freshman or sophomore ECE major who has no programming experience, no background in EE or CE, and is required to learn MATLAB programming. There are nearly 200 examples and over 80 programs that demonstrate how solutions of practical problems can be obtained with MATLAB. After using this book, the ECE student will be well prepared to apply MATLAB in all coursework that is commonly included in EE and CE curricula.

本书将MATLAB编程语言的教学与精心挑选的电气和计算机工程（ECE）基础知识的介绍和发展相结合。这就是本书与其他有关MATLAB的书籍的不同之处：它是专门针对ECE的问题的。学生将清楚地看到，MATLAB如何以及为何非常适合解决实际的ECE问题。

本书主要针对没有编程经验、没有EE或CE背景的ECE专业大一或大二学生，他们需要学习MATLAB编程。书中有近200个例子和80多个程序，展示了如何用MATLAB获得实际问题的解决方案。使用本书后，ECE学生将为在EE和CE课程中普遍包含的所有课程作业中应用MATLAB做好充分准备。
