This course will study numerical techniques for a variety of problems, such as finding roots of polynomials, interpolation, numerical integration, numerical solutions of differential equations, and matrix computations. We will study the underlying theory behind the algorithms, including error analysis, and the algorithms will be implemented using mathematical software to facilitate numerical experimentation.
Requisite: MATH 211 and either 271 or 272, or permission of the instructor. Limited to 24 students. Fall semester. Professor Leise.
