GENERAL COURSE DESCRIPTION (UM SCHEDULE OF CLASSES):
Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD. Prerequisites: MATH 241, ENES 220, and
permission of department. Corequisite: MATH 246. For ENCE majors only.
Formerly ENCE 301. Elementary numerical analysis: roots of equations,
systems of linear algebraic equations, curve fitting, integration, and
solution of ordinary differential equations. Numerical techniques are
presented in the context of engineering applications, and example problems
are solved using a variety of computer-based tools (structure programming,
spreadsheet, and computational/symbolic processing software packages).
