CSCI 1210 — Course schedule · Spring 2015

Week 1

• Homework:  2.21 (D=0:10:180), 2.22(solving 2.19)
  always start your script by clc, clear all; close all;
• always suppress intermediate results and only display the final results by appending a semicolon ; at the end.
  start each problem with a cell mode by
  %% problem # (double percentage sign followed by a space then texts.
  pause;
  display('problem 12.15');
  pause;
  at the beginning of each problem or each separated question (if necessary).
  Use the script
  figure('name','problem #') to open a new figure window. submission format: one single m-script file. The same for each chapter unless otherwise indicated.

Week 2

• Homework:  3.9, 3.17, 3.21, Use the script
  figure('name','problem #') to open a new figure window.

Week 3

• Homework: 4.8(Use T=100:100:1000 and P=[100:100:1000] and meshgrid, 4.13

Week 4

• Homework: 5.4, 5.20 (use T=300:50:1000;), 5.21, 5.27, 5.28, 5.30
  Create one figure for each problem by using `subplot' to include several plots into one figure window. Use the script
  figure('name','problem #') to open a new figure window.

Week 5

• Homework: 6.8, 6.13, 6.15 (a) Use 0:25:200; (b) (c) use 0:10:100 
  (submission format: either 1) a compressed folder containing one main m-script file and several files of primary functions that may include subfunctions  or 2) use a single file that includes a primary function with no input and output and several subfunctions and once the primary function is called, it outputs all the required results. This format is illustrated in figures 6.13, 6.14 on pages 230-231.)

Week 6
 

• Homework:  7.13 (a)(b)(c); 
  7.17(a)(b)use 0:100:400000 for the miles  and annotate x,y axes and title. Choose the pair of Camry and Camry hybrid. (c)(d). Submit one single M-script file.

Week 7

• Homework:  8.17 (optional, no credit given, just for fun), 8.14,  8.18 
  Submission format: You may submit one single M-script file or a compressed file containing a M-script file and files of your user-defined functions .

Week 8

• Homework: 8.8 ((data file lake_powell.dat or lake_powell.xls. you might need a for loop to have a more elegant program), 9.16. Submission format: one m-script file.

Week 9

Week 10

18. 03/16:  ch10
19. 03/18:  ch10

• Homework: 
• 1)10.6, 10.7(b), 10.12, 10.14, 10.15, 10.18(c)
• 2)Create a m-function using the definition of matrix multiplication and for loops to compute the product of two matrices. Your function should accept two input matrices, and output the product. Your function should first check if the dimensions of the two matrices match. If not, indicate the dimensions of the matrices do not match and terminate the program. If the dimensions match, output the product. Then write a script to test your function by using two matrices and compare the result to that by using the built-in matrix multiplication operator (*) via taking the difference of the results.
• 2) compare the run time of your function and the built-in matrix multiplication operator (*) with a matrix of  size anywhere between 10~200 and report the runtimes of each and the ratio of the  runtimes. You may generate the test matrix by using rand(n), randn(n), or some other types of test matrices.  
• Submission format: one m-script file and one function file.

Week 11

Week 12

Submission format: one m-script file.
 

Week 13

• submit format: one m-script file. Use pause; at the beginning of each problem.

Week 14

Week 15
