Introduction To MATLAB: Marta Wilczkowiak

The document provides an overview of using MATLAB for data analysis tasks including importing data from various sources, visualizing and processing data, automating analysis, and creating reports. It demonstrates these capabilities through a flutter suppression controller case study that analyzes data from multiple spreadsheets to model damping ratio as a function of flight parameters.
