• Detailed description of this new course which contain far more topics than we will have time to discuss.
• Syllabus.
• Laurent O. Jay's homepage.

ABOUT THE INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS

• A minimal constraint on each project is that it must include Runge-Kutta methods as the methods used and/or analyzed.
• Each student must work on her/his own project. If two persons work together on a bigger project, each report and presentation has to be different.

FORTRAN

• Type "man f90" on Unix workstations for information on how to compile
• Introduction to Fortran. A Fortran 90 for the Fortran 77 programmer. A list of Fortran tutorials. Another list of Fortran tutorials.

COMPUTER LABORATORY

• Divisional Studio Classroom and HP Computer Lab
• Getting Started in the Division of Mathematical Sciences

UNIX CLASS ACCOUNTS
