Calendar description

This course description includes:

  • Application of computational methods to engineering problems.
  • Number systems, errors and error propagation.
  • Roots of nonlinear equations.
  • Introduction to numerical linear algebra.
  • Interpolation and numerical integration.
  • Introduction to numerical solutions of ordinary differential equations, optimization.

It also includes a statement that the [e]mphasis will be placed on algorithm development.

This course covers all these topics, but also includes a section on specific partial differential equations of interest to electrical and computer engineering students. Additionally, this course includes topics related to both exact values and when data is gathered in the presence of noise.
