Pre-requisites: Mathematics of the 10 + 2 level
Aim: This course deals with the techniques of numerical analysis, which gives the solution to applied problems when ordinary analytical methods fail. There is also emphasis is on computer programming so that the numerical techniques can be used in design of and solving problems. The course is divided into two parts.
The First part is essentially theoretical. This contains topics pertaining to numerical analysis, numerical differentiation and integration, solution of linear equations etc.
The second part will consist of Lab work, where we will implement all theoretical aspects of numerical analysis into Lab work. Students will also be taught C++ programming with the aim of implementing the routines developed in the theory part of Numerical Analysis.
