INTS005 Module 1 Computers for Engineers (Using MATLAB) Instructors and Classes Info on Board  Computers for Engineers Credit Hours: 2 Contact Hours: 1 hr lecture + 10 min break + 2 h 40 min lab including quizzes Textbook: – David M. Smith, “Engineering Computation with MATLAB”, 3/E, Prentice Hall, 2013. – Stormy Attaway, “MATLAB: A practical Introduction to Programming and Problem Solving”, Elsevier, 2011. Programming Language: – MATLAB (2006 or newer, 2016 is preferred)  Helpful Material Interactive MATLAB Tutorial from MathWorks http://www.mathworks.com/academia/student _center/tutorials/register.html YouTube Videos – Learn MATLAB in Arabic (Dr Seif Fateen) – MATLAB Tutorial  Course Objectives (1) Develop skills in algorithmic thinking by preparing computer programs to analyze and present engineering data (2) Properly evaluate and interpret the results of programming work (3) Learn to write (in MATLAB) the types of programs needed for engineering problem solving  Course Intended Learning Outcomes ILO's After completing the course, students will be able to: 1. Evaluate the results of programming work. 2. Create pseudo code algorithm that illustrate algorithmic thinking. Use the algorithm in preparing to write matlab programs. 3. Follow and document each step in the Problem Solving Method (input, output, solve by hand, scientific principles, convert to code, test code). 4. Use the programming language MATLAB to write computer programs that solve engineering problems. 5. Use data types, input/output commands, loops, control structures, functions, arrays, and other programming language constructs in matlab computer programs.  Grading 20 Final Exam – after week 14 10 Midterm Exam –week 8 10 Two Quiz weeks 3 and 5 10 Lab classwork – Weekly, and Homework as classwork compensation.  Topics 1.
