In this session we study the Euclidean distance function for the plane has three properties: non-negativity, symmetry and the Triangle Inequality. In a similar way, we find in this extract that the Euclidean distance on Rn satisfies the same three properties. The creative leap is to use this observation to raise these properties to the status of axioms and to say that any function that satisfies them is a well-defined distance function, known as a metric. The extract is relatively self-contained and should be reasonably easy to understand for someone with a sound knowledge of pure mathematics.
This course analyze the basic techniques for the efficient numerical
solution of problems in science and engineering. Topics spanned root
finding, interpolation, approximation of functions,
differential equations, direct and iterative methods.
