Course overview and goals
The aim of this lecture is to learn basic programming techniques and create programs for numerical analysis using C ++, one of the most widely used programming languages. Elementary grammar of C ++ language to matters important for numerical analysis such as pointers and arrays are learned through programming exercises. Also learn basic algorithms for essential skills for science and engineering researchers and engineers such as solution of simultaneous linear equations, interpolation and extrapolation, integration of functions, Monte Carlo method, solution of nonlinear equations, etc. Experience programming in.
Course description and aims
By the end of this class, students will be able to:
(1) utilize a computer language (C, C++),
(2) understand algorithms of major numerical analysis methods, which are commonly used in research fields,
(3) make basic programes for numerical analysis in their fields.
Keywords

Study advice (preparation and review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
