Linear Algebra and MatLab

Looking forward to doing Linear Algebra next year but I have zero experience or knowledge with programming of any sort. Will that be a problem for the MatLab part of the subject? I just downloaded the app and it all looked so foreign to me. For context I’m a (very) mature age student and although I’m fine with computers in general and enjoy maths (got a 74 for Calc1), I feel like programming might just be a bit too much for me to handle.
