Course Name: Computational Mathematics with SageMath

Course abstract

Computational Mathematics with SageMath: This eight week course aims to use SageMath, a Python based free and open source computer algebra system (CAS) to explore concepts in Calculus, Applied Linear Algebra and Numerical Methods. The course will begin with the introduction of basic Python programming language in the first two weeks. Next we shall provide a quick introduction to SageMath software along with plotting 2D and 3D objects. The main focus will be on using SageMath to explore topics in Calculus, Applied Linear Algebra and Numerical Method along with several applications.
