Numerical Computation (STAT 30700)

Prerequisites: Elementary programming experience and consent of instructor.

Catalog Description: This course covers fundamental algorithms for the solution of linear equations, the decomposition of matrices, least squares, and finite dimensional eigenvalue problems. We also discuss optimization problems and some the basic principles of the Fourier and wavelet transform. We investigate the mathematical foundations of the algorithms andimplement them in C++.
