ABSTRACT
A Appendix: The MATLAB Top 500 Open the online Help window, select Help:MATLAB ◮Functions and Help:Symbolic Math Toolbox ◮Functions, and you will see a lengthy index of all functions in MATLAB and the Symbolic Math Toolbox. Many of these functions are needed only in special cases, however, or for very specific kinds of applications. This Appendix gives you a more manageable index, with a description of the 500 most frequently used functions, operators, and special characters in MATLAB and the Symbolic Math Toolbox, in the same outline as the Help ◮Functions documentation. In this Appendix, a page reference in brackets refers to a discussion of the function in the main part of the book. Other page references refer to this Appendix.
