This lecture introduces MATLAB and Octave, two software tools commonly used in mathematics for simple calculations and solving complex problems. While MATLAB is a commercial software, Octave is a free alternative developed by enthusiasts. The focus is on getting started with the software to enable self-learning and utilizing online resources effectively. By the end of the course, students are expected to be proficient in handling the software, writing scripts and functions, working with vectors and matrices, processing data files, generating and saving graphs, and creating interactive programs.
