>>11678688you'll need to get used to a different style for sure like the other guy said. there's no reason to use classes or anything like that. just functions and certain data structures. again, the onramp thing is pretty useful, and this video is pretty good too to pick it up:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_ekAD7U-wUas always definitely pause the video and do everything on your own every few minutes or so. the video is from a slightly older version of matlab, but it shouldn't matter.
afterwards, a great way to get used to matlab is to pick things you want to do and then to try and do them using the matlab documentation. the documentation is very thorough and easy to read, and you probably have access to a lot of packages if it's through your uni. some examples of projects might be numerically solving ODE or PDE that you like and plotting the results, taking in audio or images (wav and jpgs are really easy to process) and screwing around with them, or implementing some fun dynamical systems like the QR algorithm iteration.
