Mathematical Software (FSI-0MS)

Academic year 2018/2019
Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Ing. Tomáš Březina, CSc.  
Supervising institute: ÚM all courses guaranted by this institute
Teaching language: Czech
Aims of the course unit:
The aim of the course is to teach programming in MATLAB and to create user-friendly applications with an efficient use of the built-in tools. This is done by gradually acquiring practical MATLAB, which leads to the processing of the assigned unassisted projects.
Learning outcomes and competences:
Students learn to use the MATLAB environment. They verify the acquired knowledge by the processing of two semestral projects.
Prerequisites:
Basics of programming, fundamentals of linear algebra.
Course contents:
Students learn to work with MATLAB. The algoritmization, based on the use of specific resources provided by MATLAB, is gradually discussed. The teaching takes the form of demonstrations and experimenting on the computer. Students will verify the level of reached knowledge by the processing of two semestral projects.
Teaching methods and criteria:
The course is taught as a seminary which is focused on practical learning material.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes:
The processing of two semestral projects is the condition for credit granting.
Controlled participation in lessons:
Active participation in the seminars.
Type of course unit:
    Computer-assisted exercise  13 × 2 hrs. compulsory
