ADVANCED PROGRAMMING IN SCILAB provides a powerful computing environment for engineering and scientific application. SciLab is free and open source software for numerical computation. The software includes a lot of mathematical functions and is based on a high-level programming language, comprising of advanced data structures and graphical functions. SciLab based simulation experiments have been recently included in the undergraduate curriculum. The book has been written in a lucid language will enable students to visualize solutions of non-trivial problems.

• • Meticulously planned chapters that includes interesting examples • Advanced physical problems have been solved by making SciLab programs • Sufficient background theory of these problems are also given • Used illustrations, diagrams and graphs • Extensive coverage and it primarily focuses on applications of SciLab • Large number of exercises at the end of each chapter with solutions at website.
