Numerical Methods

The document outlines the topics covered in a numerical methods course across 5 units: Unit I covers solving equations through methods like bisection, false position, and Newton-Raphson as well as solving simultaneous linear equations. Unit II introduces finite differences, difference tables, and difference operators. Unit III covers interpolation, including linear, Newton's forward and backward interpolation formulas, and central difference interpolation formulas. Unit IV discusses interpolation with unequal intervals using divided differences and Lagrange's and Newton's formulas. Unit V presents numerical differentiation and integration techniques like the trapezoidal rule, Simpson's rules for numerical integration.
