CS3113Introduction to Numerical Methods3 ch (3C)

Intended for Computer Science and Engineering students. Error analysis, convergence and stability. Approximation of functions by polynomials. Numerical quadrature and differentiation. The solution of linear and non-linear equations and the solution of ordinary differential equations. This course will emphasize the understanding of numerical algorithms and stress applications in the applied sciences, as well as the influence of finite precision and arithmetic on computational results. Credit will be given for only one of CS 3113 or MATH 3413 or ECE 2412. 

 Prerequisites: (CS 1003 or CS 1073) and (MATH 2213 or MATH 1503)
