Course objectives
Students will learn the basic mathematical algorithms that find their application in practice, especially economic. The subject matter discussed is practiced using simple examples. The aim of this training is a deeper understanding of the discussed methods that enable students to effectively make use of computer technology, the deployment of which in analogous problems on a larger scale is necessary.
