Assignments are due at class time.
It is also suggested that you work out all the problems in each assignment since a randomly chosen subset of them will be graded. Sample Tests 1 and 2 from Spring 2000 will be made available. Importance of numerical methods for undergrad CS majors according to Bob Funderlic. Scilab is similar to Matlab and available for free. MatrixMarket at NIST is another interesting site.
