Summary:

This course is oriented towards practical applications of selected numerical methods demonstrated by examples. It helps to familiarize with basic numerical methods for the evaluation of functions, interpolation, extrapolation, computing of derivation and definite integral, solution of systems of linear algebraic equations, computing non-linear equations and their systems, and numerical data modeling. The next topics of the lectures are: errors, accuracy and stability of numerical computing and related error-free algorithms. Some cryptographic algorithms are also introduced.
