Math 253 CalcLab Linux MATLAB Environment

Here's how to set up your MATLAB environment on a Linux machine for Math 253.
  1. Right-Click on the following Zip file, then select "Save Link As..." In the ensuing dialog box, choose your home directory in the "Save in folder" drop-down box. (Do NOT save the folder on your desktop!)
  2. Open a terminal window. At the command prompt enter "unzip MATLAB_lnx.zip" without the quotes. Wait for the extraction to complete. Then delete the Zip file by typing "rm MATLAB_lnx.zip" and pressing Enter.

  3. Start MATLAB via the panel at the bottom of the screen. (Its button looks like a gold hill.) The codes I wrote for you will now be accessible locally!
