MATH 405 - Numerical Analysis
Sample Tests and Quizzes
Please feel free to use the sample
tests and quizzes below to help you study for this class. I have
endeavored to arrange them by subject matter. These quizzes and tests were
given in similar classes taught by me at Athens State University (anything
before Fall 2004).
Because I like to change things up every now and then, I thus have
the following disclaimer: These will not be the same quizzes and tests
that you will have in this class and this semester I may not cover the same
topics in the same order as previous semesters.
