Software for Scientific Computing ((3 Credits))

Catalog description

This course introduces some of the high-level computing languages and software that are widely used in industry and universities. These software are extremely efficient on matrix operations, and also they focus on numerical computing in interactive environment. In this course, we focus on introducing MATLAB and R language, and give a brief tour of Mathematics. The aim of the course is to have students to learn what these three pieces of software can do and how they can use the tools for their own computing purposes.
