Course syllabus
Class-room lectures: Introduction to object oriented programming. Basics of C++ language: class, inheritance and plymorphism. Structured algorithms, computational complexity, ordering and search algorithms, search methods of function roots and minima, polynomial interpolation (Lagrange and Newton methods), numerical quadrature, ramdom variables. Monte Carlo method (integration of a function and experiment simulation) . Ordinary differential equations. One-step methods (Eulero, Heun and Runge-Kutta).
Practical applications with computer in laboratory are based on these items.
