Introduction to Numerical Analysis

This lecture introduces the course on numerical analysis, covering the importance of the course for future studies, the presentation of the MOOC, MATLAB, and Jupyter notebooks. The course consists of 14 weeks with 2-hour lessons and exercises, focusing on numerical analysis and optimization. The content is divided into two parts: numerical analysis and optimization. The evaluation includes quizzes, a June exam, and improvements based on student feedback. The course covers topics such as additive manufacturing, optimization with and without constraints, and applications in fields like robotics and machine learning.
