Of these two courses MST204 is the more useful. Several important topics in numerical computation are omitted from this course. A brief introduction to the numerical solution of differential equations and eigenvalue problems can be found in MST204. A complementary course in numerical methods is M372. Students interested in formulating problems are advised to study T3O1.
Language of instruction is English.
Media and methods employed Study texts, audio cassettes, telephone tutoring. Audio cassettes are used together with the teaching packages on the microcomputer. Students will need access to a microcomputer which meets the University's home computing policy. Both teaching and applications packages will be supplied on disks.
