Subject: Math 32A- NUMERICAL METHODS AND ANALYSIS Algorithm and their complexity The growth of functions Analysis of errors in numerical calculations Roots of algebraic and transcendental equations Introduction Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation (as opposed to symbolic manipulations) for the problems of mathematical analysis (as distinguished from discrete mathematics), Error is the difference between the actual (true) value of a quantity and the computed (approximate) value. Learning Outcome 1. 2. 3. 4. Recognizing the different numerical errors Understanding the use of algorithms in solving numerical problems Knowing how to solve the errors in numerical problems Solve roots of an equation using Bracketing method Learning Content 1.
