MATLAB and ChatGPT for Scientific Coding

Scientific research and data analysis often require custom programming, but learning to code from scratch can feel overwhelming. This text-based course bridges that gap by combining foundational MATLAB instruction with modern AI-assisted coding workflows. You will transition from a complete beginner to a confident programmer capable of writing clean MATLAB scripts, analyzing datasets, and creating clear visualizations. By integrating ChatGPT into your development workflow, you will learn how to debug errors instantly, explain complex logic, and draft code faster than ever before. What you'll learn: - Understand the core MATLAB environment, fundamental data types, and syntax conventions. - Write structured scripts and reusable functions to automate scientific calculations. - Utilize ChatGPT to generate, optimize, and document your MATLAB code using effective prompting techniques. - Import and process scientific data from various formats, including text files and spreadsheets. - Create clear, professional data visualizations and plots to communicate research findings. - Debug coding errors systematically using both built-in MATLAB tools and AI assistance. The course begins with essential programming concepts and MATLAB's workspace environment before moving into logic control, data handling, and visualization techniques. Throughout the written explanations, you will practice combining traditional coding logic with AI-powered assistance to accelerate your learning. This course is designed specifically for beginners, students, researchers, and professionals who want to learn scientific programming without any prior coding background.
