CMPUT 340 - Introduction to Numerical Methods

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 3-1S-3)

Computer arithmetic and errors. The study of computational methods for solving problems in linear algebra, non-linear equations, optimization, interpolation and approximation, and integration. This course will provide a basic foundation in numerical methods that supports further study in machine learning; computer graphics, vision and multimedia; robotics; and other topics in Science and Engineering. Prerequisites: CMPUT 204 or 275; MATH 214; one of MATH 102, 125, or 127; one of MATH 225 or 227; and one of STAT 151, 161, 181, 235, 265, SCI 151, or MATH 181.
