This directory contains the MATLAB code for the book:

Introduction to Cryptography with Coding Theory, by Wade Trappe and Lawrence
C. Washington.

The code is contained in many separate files (unlike the Maple and 
Mathematica code, which are each contained in a single file). The
code provides the functions needed in the supplemental MATLAB examples
in the book. This code has been tested with MATLAB version 5.3 and higher,
and should work with earlier editions.

To use the code, first download each of the files to the same working 
directory or folder.
(Note: If the .m extension is not recognized by Netscape or 
Internet Explorer,it might be helpful to hold down the "Shift" key to 
download the file).

Once the files have been downloaded to a working directory or folder, launch
Matlab and make sure that you are working in the directory that contains
the files you have downloaded.

Calculations can be done from the command workspace, or by writing your own
MATLAB scripts.

Finally, in Chapter 6 and Chapter 8 , some commands require the use of the 
Maple Kernel. We have provided a separate file ciphertexts_maple.m that
loads these variables into the Maple Kernel.
