Numerical Methods I

This course is a study of number system; errors and the numerical solution of non-linear equations; and systems of linear equations. Further topics include Lagrange interpolation and least-squares method; numerical integration and differentiation; and an introduction to the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations. PREREQ: MATH 1057, MATH 2066, and either COSC 1046 or COSC 2836. (lec 3) cr 3. Cross-listed as COSC 3416; students may not retain credit for both MATH 3416 and COSC 3416.
