Note: 

1. In the following: C3.2 stands for computer problems in Section
3.2, and so forth.

2. Sample programs can be downloaded from the course web page.

3. Please email your program to qfang@math.purdue.edu (with a simple
instruction on how to produce your results), and hand in the
printout of the results to me.


Project 1: Due Feb 12

Use and modified the programs newton0.m (for scalar function only, can
 be easily modified)
 and newton.m  (works for vector functions)  to do the following:

C3.2: 3, 14b

Use the secant method for problem 3 in C3.2.

Use the Newton's method and Horner's algorithm to solve Problem 5 in
C3.2.


Project 2: Due March 20

C6.4: 6

C6.4: 7

C6.4. 8

Some helpful sample matlab programs are (ginterp.m, nspline.m)
available from the course web page. 



Project 3: Due. Apr. 22

C7.1: 1  (compute up to D(10,10))

C7.1: 2, use  the program to approximate the second derivative of the
      funtions in C7.1 #1 (compute up to D(10,10)) 

C7.4: 1  (compute up to R(10,10))
