Annotated Reading List Week 6
This reading list will provide a list of
material to read to keep up in the course. The list will contain options, where
you may read one of several treatments of the same material.
The
list:
Key:
Ell = Randy Ellis, Scientific
Computing Notes
Rec = Gerald
Recktenwald, Numerical Methods with
Matlab
Mol = Cleve Moler, Numerical
Computing with Matlab
Week
6:
Topics:- Polynomial interpolation
using the monomial, Lagrange, and Newton
Bases.
Note: I only began
describing the Newton basis in the last few minutes of Monday's lecture. I will
continue with the Newton Basis next week.
Ell covers polynomial
interpolation in classes 9, 10, and 11. There is no mention in Ell, of using
Vandermonde matrices to interpolate with the monomial basis.
Rec covers the three methods
of interpolation in Chapter 10 sections 10.1 and 10.2.
Mol only talks about the
monomial basis and the Lagrange basis in section 3.1.
