Course objectives
This course together with the course Numerical Methods II provides complete explanation of numerical mathematics as the separate scientific discipline. The emphasis is given to the algorithmization and computer implementation. Some examples with graphical outputs help to explain even some difficult parts. At the end of course students should be able to apply numerical methods for solving practical problems and use these methods in other disciplines e.g. in statistical methods.
