Software for Numerical Methods I

We will primarily be using MATLAB and Maple in this course. These programs are available in the Mathematics Center, the DataWorks Lab, and via the UNR citrix server 1 or citrix server 2. Octave is a free software alternative to MATLAB. The free GNU C/C++ and FORTRAN compilers are part of GNU+Cygwin+Windows. Another programming language is FPK free Pascal.

The following Matlab links provide online documentation to Matlab and Octave.

MATLAB Documentation from MathWorks
MATLAB Tutorials at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale
Getting Started With MATLAB at Indiana University
GNU Octave Manual

Other software we will discuss in this course is PAPI and ATLAS. Additional numerical subroutines and code may be found at the following web locations:
