Course content
Errors and defects in numerical computation. Approximations and Least Square Methods. Interpolation (Lagrange, Newton and Hermit). Polynomial spline. Numerical derivation and integration. Numerical methods for solving of linear equations systems (direct and iteration methods). Numerical methods for solving of nonlinear equations (roots separation, Newton method and its modifications). Numerical solving of ordinary differential equations (Euler and Runge-Kutta methods).

Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is introduction to analytics, approximations and numerical methods in the sphere of mathematical programming. Methods used in technical computing will be described. Matlab software is used for practical examples.
Expansion of analytical and logical cogitation. Higher level of mathematical knowledge. Summary of numerical methods and their functions in computation problems. Active solving of practical computation problems.
Prerequisites
Knowledge of mathematics in the range of university basic courses. Basic knowledge of programming.

Assessment methods and criteria
Oral examination, Written examination, Home assignment evaluation, Creative work analysis, Didactic test, Discussion

The assignment is granted upon completion of following conditions: active participation on seminars (labs); completion of all given tasks; passing all written tests. The examination comprises of three parts practical exercises, writing tests and a theoretical (speaking) test; at least 51% success rate in each part is required.
