Math 551 - Numerical Methods, Spring 2008, Tues. Thurs., 12:30-1:45, Jabara Hall Room 335.


The text is "Numerical Computing with MATLAB" by Cleve B. Moler, SIAM 2004. MATLAB is not a strict prerequisite for the class. However, you will be required to write and run MATLAB code in the course. Previous experience with some scientific programming language will be helpful. The first chapter of the text contains a brief introduction to MATLAB. The approximate syllabus is to cover as much of the text as possible.
