Over 1600 code examples show how complex problems can be decomposed and solved using just a few simple lines of code. This edition is based on MATLAB® and a number of MathWorks® toolboxes. The code can also be the starting point for new work, for practitioners, students, or researchers, by writing programs based on toolbox functions.
