Participants that are not part of the McGill Community are also invited to register with the Microsoft Forms link.
This 2-hour workshop is designed for participants who have a foundational understanding of programming and are ready to delve into MATLAB. The workshop will cover essential MATLAB functionalities with a particular focus on workspace proficiency, image data analysis, and effective plotting techniques. By the end of the session, participants will be adept at using MATLAB for various tasks, from manipulating image data to creating and customizing plots for clear data visualization.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
1. Feel comfortable using the MATLAB workspace: Understand syntax, write and run scripts, use built-in functions, and navigate MATLAB documentation and
community resources.
2. Process image data: Load, manipulate, analyze, and save image data.
3. Produce interpretable result plots: Know how to create and customize a variety of plots.
Pre-requisites:
1. Students must have MATLAB installed and functioning on their laptop before the workshop. Installation steps will not be covered during the workshop. Assistance
can be provided upon reasonable request.
2. Students are expected to have a basic level of understanding of programming concepts (ex. writing and running a script, variables, for loops, if/else statements,
creating and calling functions, etc.)
