"Scilab for Beginners" takes a little bit more than 1 hour to introduce you to the main feature of Scilab: Matrices, Vectors and Scalars computation.
The videos include many Scilab sessions to demonstrate the matrices, vectors and scalars definition and manipulation.
The "basic" operations introduced here are not so basis, as they are globally managed matrices, vectors and scalars manipulation.
The addition and subtraction are intuive, as they are element by element operations. But the multiplication is the matricial global one, and you have to know a littke bit of linear algebra to understand it. The exponent and even matrices division are also introduced in that course.
By the end of the course, you will be able to use Scilab as a high level caculator. You will be also ready to use Scilab as a laboratoty in our forthcoming series of courses in practical mathematics.
What are the requirements?
• This course needs undergraduate level in mathematics
What am I going to get from this course?
• Use Scilab as a high level caculator
• Matrices, Vectors and Scalars addition and subtraction
• Make Matrices, Vectors and Scalars global and Element by Element Multiplication and Division
What is the target audience?
• The course is useful to anybody interested in scientific computing
Curriculum
Section 1: Overview
Lecture 1 Introduction
This is an introductary course. It explains what the course is intended to teach, what is the audience and what is the goal of the course.
Lecture 2 HW & SW Requirements
This Lecture explains how to get Scilab and how to install it on a Linux, Windows or Mac OS computer.
Lecture 3 Example: a Newton Algorithm
This lecture shows a complete example that uses Scilab to solve an equation with a Newton Algorithm.
Lecture 4 What's next?
And now, we make an overview of the core of the course: Matrices, Vectors and Scalars definition and global manipulation.
Section 2: Computation with Scilab
Lecture 5 Which Variable Types?
This Lecture explains that the variables in Scilab are typed as matrices, vectors and scalars of real and complex numbers, booleans, and strings.
Lecture 6 Basic Operations
This lecture deals with "basic" operations that are the simpler matrices, vectors and scalar global manipulation. The operators are the addition and subtraction, and the boolean operations. They are defined globally as element by element corresponding operation.
Lecture 7 Matrices, Vectors and Scalars multiplication
This lecture shows the matrices, vectors and scalars multiplications. There exists two kinds of such multiplications, the globel multiplication and the element by element multiplication. Both are managed by Scilab.
Lecture 8 Exponent related topics
Exponent related topics are all the ways to put to the power globally or element by element the matrices, vectors and scalars.
Lecture 9 Matrices, Vectors and Scalars Division
The divisions of matrices, vectors and scalars are left and right global division, as well as element by element division. This Lecture shows them all.
Section 3: Conclusion
Lecture 10 Conclusion
And now, it's time to say Good Bye… and see you on Mathedu website!
