Prerequisites
This course assumes that you have acquired the skills of the end of secondary school allowing you to translate a problem into a system of equations with several variables and to solve it.
Main themes
The course emphasizes:
  •     the understanding of mathematical tools and techniques based on a rigorous learning of the concepts favored by the highlighting of their concrete application,
  • the rigorous manipulation of these tools and techniques within the framework of concrete applications.
Subjects covered:
Matrix calculation
Solving Systems of Linear Equations
Linear algebra
Learning outcomes

At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to :

S1.G1 S2.2 With regard to the AA reference system of the "Bachelor in Computer Science" program, this course contributes to the development, acquisition and evaluation of the following learning outcomes:
    S1.G1 
    S2.2
Students who successfully complete this course will be able to:
  •     Model concrete problems using matrices and vectors;
  •     Solve concrete problems using matrix calculation techniques (in particular the resolution of linear systems);
  •     Reasoning by correctly manipulating mathematical notations and methods keeping in mind but going beyond a more intuitive interpretation of concepts.
 
Content
The course emphasizes:
  •     the understanding of mathematical tools and techniques based on a rigorous learning of the concepts favored by the highlighting of their concrete application,
  • the rigorous manipulation of these tools and techniques within the framework of concrete applications.
The concepts covered in the course are described below.
Matrix calculation
  •     Matrix operations
  •     Inversion
  •     Determining
Solving Systems of Linear Equations
  •     Matrix writing of a system of linear equations
  •     Basic Row Operations
  •     Gauss-Jordan elimination
  •     LU factorization
  •     Implementation of algorithms for solving systems of linear equations
Linear algebra
  •     Vectors, operations on vectors
  •     Vector spaces (vector, independence, basis, dimension)
  •     Linear maps (maps to plane, kernel and image transformations)
  •     Eigenvectors and eigenvalues ​​(including maps)
  •     Dot products and orthogonal projections
Teaching methods
Lectures and exercise-based learning activities (APE). Online assignments will also be offered. The course and the learning activities through exercises will favor interactions between teachers and students.
Some of the above activities (lessons, APE, APP) can be organized remotely.
Evaluation methods
Students are assessed individually during a written exam on the basis of the learning outcomes announced above. In addition, homework results will be incorporated into the final grade as a bonus. The exact terms and conditions will be specified during the course.
