Numerical C++

If a program is performing any form of numerical operations, it is likely that it will become the program bottleneck. To minimize the impact of the bottleneck, care must be taken to ensure that the code being executed is as optimized as possible.

Course Content

In this course we will introduce the numerical library Armadillo. We will give an overview of the syntax, and how to employ the language to solve large-scale numerical problems.

Prerequisite

This course requires some familiarity with the C++ programming language, introduced here.

Duration: 2 hours

Tools Introduced

Armadillo

Armadillo is a linear algebra software library for the C++ programming language. It aims to provide efficient and streamlined base calculations, while at the same time having a straightforward and easy-to-use interface. Its intended target users are scientists and engineers.
