Course content
1. Basic familiarization with the IT support offered at TUL. 2. Writing structured text using LaTeX. 3. Citation methods (ČSN ISO 690, use of automatic tools). 4. Creation of objects in the text (equations, graphs, tables, chemical formulas, diagrams, source codes). Possible using of Excel / Google Tables etc. 5. Introduction to Matlab (online courses), scalars, vectors, matrices, and linear algebraic operations with these structures. 6. Solving systems of linear equations, calculation, and display of basic explicitly specified functions of one independent variable (goniometric, polynomial, exponential, examples of inverse functions). 7. Calculation and display of implicitly specified functions - conic sections. 8. Examples of functions of two independent variables and their graphical 3D display. 9. Symbolic calculations (differential and integral calculus). 10. Number series - examples. 11. Display of measured data and least squares regression method - selection of the selected approximation function. Interpolation and approximation. 12. Cycle commands. 13. Approximate numerical calculation of derivatives of functions of one variable. Approximate numerical calculation of definite integrals of functions of one variable. 14. Presentation of IT tools and template using. Final summary.

Learning outcomes
The students will learn how to perform mathematical calculations using Matlab and Excel. The focus will be on the most important mathematical methods that will be used during the whole course of their studies. Many practical examples of calculations will make use of the knowledge that the students obtain in the courses: Mathematics 1, Mechanics, General Chemistry and Instrumentation technology.
Graduates from this course will obtain knowledge of the field of programming in MATLAB and EXCEL
