This document serves as the textbook of the
Numerical Methods course for undergraduate students at
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering,
University of Waterloo.
The course introduces
numerical methods (to be implemented on a computer) and their application to engineering problems. It covers number systems, errors and error propagation, linear algebra and solving linear systems of equations, finding roots of nonlinear equations, an introduction to optimization, interpolation and regression, numerical integration and differentiation and an introduction to numerical solutions of
initial-value problems (IVPs) of
ordinary differential equations (ODE).
Each topic covered contains several sub-topics which include an introduction, lecture notes, basic theory, HOWTO, several examples, known applications, error rates, questions, and finally both
Matlab and
Maple code for the implementation, should there is a support from both tools.
