MATH 358 — Computational Mathematics I-Prerequisite MATH 220
Mathematics · University of Ghana
This course is a sequel to MATH 220. In this course, we continue the solution of linear systems by treating matrices with special structures. We also continue with data fitting using polynomials. Several high order methods for discretizing the derivative and definite integral are also treated. The course ends with approximations of eigenvalues for large matrices. We explain the concept of the dominant eigenvalue and its eigenvector. We also look at simultaneous approximation of eigenvalues.
