This course is about how to write and use computer code to explore and solve problems in pure and applied mathematics. The first part of the course will be an introduction to programming in Python. The remainder of the course (and its goal) is to help students develop the skills to translate mathematical problems and solution techniques into algorithms and code. Students will work together on group projects with a variety applications throughout the curriculum.
This course is open to Undergraduate Mathematics majors only. COMPSCI 121, MATH235&300/CS250
