Syllabus
The class will cover material from Chapters 2-14 of the text Curves and Surfaces for CAGD, Academic Press, Boston. This class is aimed at bringing students close to independent research, and no week-to-week syllabus is possible: if interesting topics arise, we will spend more time on them. Student input on choice of topics is welcome!Grading
There will be four programming projects and four homework assignments. Of these eight assignments, six must be completed. All carry equal weight. Click here for current grades.Assignments
All homework must be produced using a word processor; handdrawn sketches are fine. Do not hand in code. Teamwork is OK, but a team has to do more work than an individual. Late work will be discounted at a rate of 5% per day.Data for project 2. A linear system solver.
