1.
Outline
Numerical analysis is a widely used technique to solve various practical problems such as weather forecasting, rocket launching, designing automobiles and aircrafts, among others.
In this course we emphasize both numerical differentiation and numerical integrals, etc.
Numerical differentiation leads to understanding of chaos that are utilized in a number of fields.

2.
Objectives
After taking this course, students will be able to differentiate a number of functions numerically.
By utilizing numerical differentiation, the students will understand the concept of chaos.
Finally, they will be able to integrate various functions numerically.
3.
Grading Policy
Two sets of reports and a final exam.
4.
