Programming Numerical Methods in Python
Online Course


https://www.udemy.com/programming-numerical-methods-in-python


More than 11 hours of video lectures, 
more than 65 pages of companion articles and 
29 source codes

Course Description:
Many of the Numerical Analysis courses focus on the theory and derivations of the numerical methods more than the programming techniques. Students get the codes of the numerical methods in different languages from textbooks and lab notes and use them in working their assignments instead of programming them by themselves.

For this reason, the course of Programming Numerical Methods in Python focuses on how to program the numerical methods step by step to create the most basic lines of code that run on the computer efficiently and output the solution at the required degree of accuracy.
This course is a practical tutorial for the students of Numerical Analysis to cover the part of the programming skills of their course.

In addition to its simplicity and versatility, Python is a great educational computer language as well as a powerful tool in scientific and engineering computations. For the last years, Python and its data and numerical analysis and plotting libraries, such as NumPy, SciPy and matplotlib, have become very popular programming language and tool in industry and academia.

That’s why this course is based on Python as programming language and NumPy and matplotlib for array manipulation and graphical representation, respectively. At the end of each section, a number of SciPy numerical analysis functions are introduced by examples. In this way, the student will be able to program his codes from scratch and in the same time use the advanced library functions in his work.

This course covers the following topics:

  1. Roots of High-Degree Equations
  2. Interpolation and Curve Fitting
  3. Numerical Differentiation
  4. Numerical Integration
  5. Systems of Linear Equations
  6. Ordinary Differential Equations

Hello World !

Although I constructed this blog along time ago, I didn't find the time and the interest to post anything. I don't know why. I could be because of the intense pace of my work as a lecturer in the University of Benghazi, or maybe because I haven't come across something significant to be shared with you. I always accept that I am a lazy social media attendant since my best facebook activities are some likes and complimentary comments. That's it.
I don't intend to be a "professional blogger" but I think this platform will help me to share some interesting information related to my profession as a mechanical engineering academic. It include articles, tutorials, computer codes, etc.
I wish it would be interesting as much as helpful for my readers.
