class date assignment
12/1 practice naive Gaussian elimination with Maple on the following problems: p 416: 1, 2, 10
11/10 p 56: 1, 4, 8 - practice with all the tools, including Maple and ode1 (below)
10/29 p 270: 1, 2, 3
10/27

Find the best linear least-squares fit for the data below (a) by hand and (b) using Maple

x 1 2 3 4
y 0 1 1 2
10/22 p 212: 2, 5, 6, 8
10/8 p 180: 1, 2, 3
p 199: 6 (use Maple to build the polynomial and instead of 500 sample points, just plot the error function on [1/2,1])
10/6 p 166: 1, 3, 7(a,b)
p 172: 2(a,d,e), 3
(use Maple to check/help)
10/1 p 123: 1, 2
9/29 p 100: 1, 5(a,d,e) (use Maple to check/help)
9/17 p 92: 2 (b,e), 6
9/15 p 71: 5, 6, 7 (use Maple to check/help)
9/10

p 42: 1, 4 (this is programming assignment 1 below)
p 49: 2 (recommendation - use Maple), 8
p 62: 2 (recommendation - use Maple), 5

9/8/2009 finish everything below
be sure you understand the binary to decimal program
9/3/2009
p 27: 1
get familiar with Visual C++
9/1/2009 p 12: 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11(d), 12(d), 13(d)
get familiar with Maple
