Numerical Methods

  • Projected Slides Rev P5 - the extended slide pack with additional asides: PDF.

  • (Slides as printed Rev0: PDF 198 pages).

  • Demos folder: A folder containing short demonstation programs illustrating various aspects. The programs will be added just before the lecture that uses them. They are mainly available in both ML and Java, but one or two are in C as well. Folder location: https://bitbucket.org/djg11/numerical-methods-demos/src.
    At the command line you can get a local copy of this folder using
        git clone https://djg11@bitbucket.org/djg11/numerical-methods-demos.git
    
    And the updates can then be fetched using
    git pull
    .

Secondary Materials

Numerical Analysis is the oldest discipline in Computer Science. You will find many dusty books in your College library covering the subject. These will contain relevant chapters. Also, Wikipedia explains all of the topics we shall cover.

The following web resources will be referred to in lectures.
