The strength of Engineering Computation is its combination of the two most important computational programs in the engineering marketplace today, MATLAB® and Excel®. Engineering students will need to know how to use both programs to solve problems.

The focus of this text is on the fundamentals of engineering computing: algorithm development, selection of appropriate tools, documentation of solutions, and verification and interpretation of results.

To enhance instruction, the companion website includes a detailed set of PowerPoint slides that illustrate important points reinforcing them for students and making class preparation easier.
