This textbook is for science and engineering students with one semester of calculus. This course fills in often missed topics in the calculus sequence including complex numbers, matrices, algebraic systems, elements of differential equations, discrete transforms and some computation tools. The first five chapters can be covered in a two-credit course (28 50-minute classes). These chapters can be augmented by selection of topics in the last four chapters so that there is more than enough material for a three-credit course.

 

            Chapters 1 and 2.  Number Systems and Vectors in 2D and 3D

            Chapters 3, 4 and 5.  Solution of Ax = d where A is m by n with m = n, m > n and m < n

            Chapters 6 and 7.  Linear Initial Value Problems and Eigenvalues

            Chapters 8 and 9.  Image Processing in Space and Frequency Domains
