MATH421 Numerical Analysis
This is an introduction to numerical methods with emphasis on algorithm construction, analysis, implementation and their uses in solving mathematical problems on computer. Topics include round-off error, zeros of functions, interpolation and polynomial approximation, direct solvers for linear systems, numerical differentiation and integration, solutions of ordinary differential equations. Additionally, students will learn good programming techniques and implement algorithms using mathematical software uniting theory with practice. Prerequisites: MATH 255 and MATH 153
