First lecture: Thursday, October 16, 2008.

The course consists of lectures and exercise sessions. The lectures present the various topics in a theoretical manner, together with examples illustrating the theory.
More examples are treated in the exercise sessions and on the worksheets. The solutions will not be graded.
Besides the lectures and exercise sessions, we offer additional tutoring sessions.

The course material consists of slides to the lectures, and worksheets. Both can be downloaded from this website. We strongly recommend to read the slides before the lectures, as a means of preparation. We further recommend the use of additional literature, in particular the script "Calculus and linear algebra for engineers and natural scientists", by S. Orfao and G. Jank. Hardcopies of the script (ca. 450 pages) are available upon request.
