302 Computer Oriented Numerical Methods

This document outlines the syllabus for the Computer Oriented Numerical Methods course offered in the third semester of the NU BCA Second Year program. The course covers topics like computer arithmetic, approximation and errors, roots of nonlinear equations, solution of simultaneous algebraic equations, polynomial interpolation, numerical integration, and numerical solutions of ordinary differential equations. It is a 4 credit course involving 4 hours of teaching and 30 hours of practical work per week. Student performance is evaluated through internal assessment of practical work and an external exam carrying 70 and 30 marks, respectively, for a total of 100 marks.
