Credit: 0(0-4); ECTS: 4.0
Instructor(s): Consent of IAM
Prerequisites: Consent of Instructor(s)

Course Catalogue Description

Basics of programming, introducing MATLAB, programming with MATLAB, basic algorithms and problem solving in Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Optimization, and so an. Reporting and presenting problems and their solutions, introducing LATEX and/or Scientific Workplace, Typesetting text and mathematical formulae,graphing, making bibliography and index, packages and defining your own styles.

Course Objectives

The aim of this course is to help students acquire basic programming techniques and various fundamental algorithms in applied sciences. Also in this course, students are hoped to learn both programming using MATLAB and reporting their work using LATEX/ ScientificWorkplace.

Course Learning Outcomes

At the end of the course students should have a basic knowledge on programming their own algorithms and documenting them. Also, they are expected to be qualified in typesetting using Latex packages.
