Course Objectives:	Numerical Analysis is concerned with the mathematical derivation, description and analysis of obtaining numerical solutions of mathematical problems. We have several objectives for the students. Students should obtain an intuitive and working understanding of some numerical methods for the basic problems of numerical analysis. They should gain some appreciation of the concept of error and of the need to analyze and predict it. Topics cover linear and nonlinear system of equations, interpolation, curve fitting using least-squares method integration, eigenvalue, and singular value decomposition. And also they should develop some experience in the implementation of numerical methods by using MATLAB.
