An Introduction to Technical Problem Solving with MATLAB v.7, by Jon
Sticklen and M. Taner Eskil, bridges the gap between rote problem
solving encountered at the high school level and the open-ended
problem solving expected of college engineering students. It is
intended primarily for freshman and sophomore engineering students,
but also is appropriate for students in other disciplines who are
learning quantitative problem solving supported by computer tools.
