MATH 220 — Introductory Programming for Computational Mathematics
Mathematics · University of Ghana
This course is in two parts. The first part is an introduction to programming using the python programming language. This part of the course begins with the basics of python. Vectorization, and visualization in python are also treated. The second part is an introduction to solving mathematical problems numerically. These problems include finding the roots of nonlinear equations, solving large systems of linear equations and fitting polynomials to data. By the end of this course, students will be able to use python to solve basic mathematical problems.
