This course offers a comprehensive introduction to programming for numerical analysis using both Matlab and Python, taught through a university summer session.
This online course, MATH 9 (Introduction to Programming for Numerical Analysis) at UCI Summer Session, introduces students to computers and programming using Matlab and Python. Participants will learn about the representation of numbers and precision, input/output operations, and how to utilize functions and custom data types. The curriculum covers essential programming practices such as testing, debugging, and reading exceptions, alongside practical skills like plotting data and understanding the basics of algorithms. The course also delves into numerical differentiation and the analysis of random processes through computer simulations. The Python portion of the course specifically focuses on Python data types, NumPy for numerical analysis, Matplotlib for plotting, and an introduction to object-oriented programming. Students will gain a foundational understanding of programming concepts applicable to numerical analysis and data visualization.
A typical day involves online instruction covering programming concepts in Matlab and Python, with a focus on numerical analysis techniques and data plotting.
This course is ideal for high school students with a strong mathematics background who are looking for an introduction to programming for scientific and numerical applications.
