Module code: COS5018-B
Computers have become indispensable for today’s digital industry and people’s everyday lives. One of the reasons is that by implementing numerical methods, computers can solve complicated mathematical problems in many real-world applications such as Finance, Game Design, Graphics, Machine Learning, preparation and response to crises. Numerical Analysis is a subject that develops and analyses such numerical methods/algorithms. In this module, we will introduce the basic concepts of error analysis and iteration, and elementary numerical methods for solving algebraic equations; develop and implement efficient numerical algorithms and instil an appreciation of the techniques available for numerical interpolation and linear algebra.
