MATH 414 - Introduction to Numerical Analysis II

Spring (3) Prerequisite(s): (MATH 211 or MATH 210) and (MATH 212 or MATH 213) and CSCI 141 and MATH 214 .

A discussion of the mathematical theory underlying selected numerical methods and the application of those methods to problems of practical importance. Computer programs are used to facilitate calculations and illustrate analytical results. The topics covered are: nonlinear equations, interpolation and approximation, numerical integration, and numerical methods for the solution of ordinary and partial differential equations. Students planning to take 414 are encouraged to take 413 first.
