MATLAB RESOURCES:
A good companion book for the purpose of Matlab programming in Numerical Analysis is the book by Cleve Moler:
"Numerical Computing with Matlab".
The entire book is available online for free as a collection of pdf files.
The Matlab codes for all the programs are also available online.
This material is available at
http://www.mathworks.com/moler/index_ncm.html
An exerpt from "A Matlab Companion for Multivariable Calculus" by Jeffery Cooper, is available online on Jeffery Cooper's webpage
at
http://www-users.math.umd.edu/~jec/matlabintro.pdf.
There are many books. For example: "A guide to Matlab: for Beginners and Experienced Users", by Hunt Lipsman, and Rosenberg.
