Critically compare numerical methods and programmes, considering computational ef- ficiency and accuracy of the results.

Structure of assessments

This module is assessed by component B, weighted as 100% of the final mark. To pass the module you must achieve a final mark of at least 40%. This assessment brief is for component B (2000 words, excluding appendices and references). You will receive formative feedback for this assessment during lectures and group work sessions. The intended learning outcomes are

• Demonstrate competence in programming fundamentals including structure and best practice

• Apply numerical methods in a programming context to solve common civil engineering problems

• Write programs to generate data for, or solve civil engineering problems

• Critically compare numerical methods and programmes, considering computational ef- ficiency and accuracy of the results
