Lecture
This lecture covers the resolution of nonlinear equations using numerical methods, specifically focusing on the bisection method. The instructor introduces the concept of finding roots of a function defined on an interval, emphasizing the importance of the function's continuity and the conditions under which the bisection method can be applied. The lecture includes practical examples and exercises that illustrate the iterative process of narrowing down the interval to locate the root. Additionally, the use of NumPy for handling multidimensional arrays and Matplotlib for visualizing functions and images is discussed. The instructor demonstrates how to implement the bisection algorithm in Python, providing insights into error analysis and convergence criteria. The lecture aims to solidify the understanding of these numerical techniques and their applications in scientific computing, particularly in the context of image manipulation and data representation.
