Numerical Analysis by Burden and Faires. We will cover all of chapters 1-7, and perhaps part of Chapter 8.
The test will be held in class on 2003 February 17.
Grades will be assigned with approximately the following weights:
There will be written and programming assignments, including use of the computer algebra system MAPLE.

When you use a text implementation of an algorithm say what system you
used and provide a printout of the run.
Suggested additional exercises (most have answers at the back of the
text):

Write a program to implement Steffensen's method. Use the language of your choice (as long as it is C++ or Java), and concentrate on making the program robust (I will try to break it). You will hand in a source code printout and send the source code and an executable to me as attachments. This part of the assignment is due March 12.Other suggested problems: 4.1: 3, 7, 9, 21; 4.2: 3, 7, 9, 13; 4.3: 7, 9, 13, 15; 4.4: 7, 11, 13, 17

Suggested problems:
4.5: 3, 7, 11; 4.6: 3, 5; 5.1 5, 7; 5.2: 5, 7, 11(only if you are a
non-conformist);
and the parts left out of the assignment problems.
