The objective is to find the relationship between the variables x and y from the given data (x,y). This topic covers methods for finding the roots of an equation and solving a differential equation. Results: From a given discrete datum, one will be able to predict the data value at an intermediate point and by curve fitting, one can find the best-fit formula for an assumed relationship of the data variables .
After studying this section, one will be able to find the root of a given equation and find a numerical solution to a given differential equation. One will be able to find the expansion of a given function by Fourier series and Fourier transform of the function. Differential equation for an unknown function with many independent variables and to find their solution.
Therefore understanding the nature of the equation and finding a suitable solution is very essential. It is an essential requirement for an engineer to understand the behavior of the physical system.
Unit II
