This repository is an "awesome list" curated by MathWorks, providing a comprehensive collection of resources for students learning MATLAB and Simulink. It aims to guide students from beginner to advanced levels, offering tutorials, cheat sheets, competitions, and career opportunities, thereby accelerating their proficiency and application of these tools in academic and professional settings.
How It Works
The list is organized into thematic sections, covering everything from introductory "What is MATLAB?" guides and self-paced "Onramps" to discipline-specific resources and advanced topics like AI integration. It leverages a variety of formats, including direct links to documentation, video tutorials, interactive examples, downloadable cheat sheets, and community forums, creating a multi-modal learning ecosystem.
Quick Start & Requirements
- Access: No installation required for many resources; access via web links. MATLAB and Simulink software is required for some interactive examples and local execution, available via student licenses or campus-wide agreements.
- Resources: Links to official documentation, cheat sheets, video playlists, and community forums are provided throughout the README.
- Setup: Primarily browser-based access. Software installation and licensing depend on individual student or institutional arrangements.
Highlighted Details
- Extensive collection of downloadable cheat sheets covering core functions, visualization, data import, AI, and Python integration.
- Features "Onramps" for self-paced learning in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Reinforcement Learning, Control Design, and more.
- Includes links to student competitions, hackathons, and project challenges with industry relevance.
- Provides resources for integrating MATLAB with AI tools like ChatGPT and offers an AI Chat Playground.
Maintenance & Community
- Maintained by MathWorks, with active community engagement through MATLAB Central, Discord, Reddit, and Instagram (@matlab_students).
- Regularly updated with new features, AI integrations, and student opportunities.
Licensing & Compatibility
- Resources are generally free to access. MATLAB and Simulink software requires a license, with various student options available from MathWorks.
- Compatibility is tied to the MathWorks ecosystem; resources are designed for use with MATLAB and Simulink.
Limitations & Caveats
The repository is a curated list of links and resources, not a standalone software project. Access to certain interactive examples or the full functionality of MATLAB and Simulink requires appropriate licensing and software installation.
