Course Objectives The objective of this course is to introduce numerical methods to solve problems, error analysis and error estimation, and to implement numerical methods by using a computer.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • calculate roots of functions using several numerical methods.
  • write an algorithm about root finding methods.
  • find interpolation polynomial using Lagrange and Newton’s divided differences methods.
  • use Chebyshev interpolation and cubic splines for approximating functions.
  • analyze interpolation error.
  • use least squares method to solve linear and nonlinear systems of equations.
  • model problems using least squares method.
  • solve problems using QR factorization.
Course Description In this course numerical solutions of nonlinear equations will be discussed. Several interpolation methods will be given. Least squares problems will be solved.
