Course detail

Mathematical Software

FSI-0MS Acad. year: 2022/2023 Summer semester

In this course we deal with secure programming in Matlab. For this, specific features of the language are used, especially the representation of the variable as an array, supporting algorithmization with the widest possible use of built-in matrix operations. We also mention the concept of graphical user interface and some other built-in tools.
We use Matlab R2020b and higher.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Productive use of MATLAB development and programming environment and writing secure programs.

Prerequisites

Knowledge and skills that meet the conditions for successful completion of the BASICS OF PROGRAMMING (SZP) and the basics of linear algebra are expected.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The preferred style is learning by solve simple tasks.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Credit is awarded on the basis of point evaluation of an independently prepared semester project. The evaluation is fully in the competence of the teacher according to the valid guidelines of BUT.

Aims

To teach students to program in MATLAB with productive use of its specific features and some built-in tools.

Specification of controlled education, way of implementation and compensation for absences

Absence from the seminar can be replaced by a separate elaboration of the project discussed at the seminar with a possible presentation.
