Team leaders do not accomplishgoals without a supporting group that actually carries out the tasks. This need leads to theidentification of a team engineer. This particular function must be fine-tuned for the type of teamgoals, i.e. theoretical, computational, or experimental. Finally, managing to complete thenecessary tasks to meet the goals requires clear ideas. Therefore, a team idea person or innovatorto think “outside the box” and research options is a natural choice.

In industry it is widely used as a tool for analysis,development and research. MATLAB integrates computation, visualization andprogramming in an environment that is easy to learn and use.From the point of view of its usage, MATLAB is mainly an interactive system. At thecommand line the user types statements expressed in familiar mathematical notation,and the system responds immediately with the solution of the request.
