Objetius
Numerical lineal algebra deals with the obtaining of the solution of linear algebra problems. We focus our attention in the solution of systems of linear equations and the eigenvalue problem, by introducing and analysing suitable algorithms. The student will implement the algoritmths in order to use them in practical problems.
