Teaching methods
In-depth explanations during the lectures of the content of the teaching unit. Programming exercises in the computing laboratory using the most common numerical methods. Application to physics systems and problems.
Evaluation methods
* Compulsory continuous evaluation during the practice sessions (8 tests) for a total of 4 points out of 20. Two absences will be tolerated, beyond which it will be considered that the student has not participated sufficiently in the evaluation and points will be lost.
* Project in small groups based on programming and numerical calculation methods, subject to a report and an oral presentation during the exam session, for a total of 8 points out of 20.
* Exam written during the exam session covering numerical calculation methods and the architecture of computers and networks, for a total of 8 points out of 20.
* Project in small groups based on programming and numerical calculation methods, subject to a report and an oral presentation during the exam session, for a total of 8 points out of 20.
