hi everyone – quick update regarding the project. If you have material on paper to hand in, you can give it to me on Wednesday. Otherwise, please submit by email/on the OpenLab by midnight tonight. I will send confirmation emails as soon as I am able, but this may not be until Wednesday.
See you Wednesday,
Prof Reitz
For your reference, this is the rubric I will use to grade your project:
Numerical Methods Project (100 points total)
Continue readingHi everyone,
I’ve decided to push our second exam back a day — it will now take place during class on Monday, 4/1/24. I am also extending the due date of the Numerical Methods Project by one week — the new due date for the project is Monday, 4/8/24.
Exam Date: Monday 4/1/24
Exam Time: During class, 11:30am-12:45pm
Review: The review sheet is posted here (solutions can be found following the problems on the review sheet).
Numerical Methods Calculators can be built in any programming language or other tool capable of basic computation. The following examples all compute the answer to this exercise:
Exercise. Given the initial value problem $y’ = 3 – 2x – 0.5y, y(0)=1$, approximate the value of $y(1)$ using Euler’s Method with 10 intervals.
Continue readingNumerical methods provide a way to compute (approximate) values of solutions to differential equations, even when we cannot solve the equations exactly. The drawback is the large number of numerical calculations required to obtain a desired value and level of precision. In this project, you will use technology to implement the various numerical methods and use your technological solution to solve differential equations problems.
