Practice Programming Projects
- Download the following tarred datafiles
- Untar them in a local directory
- Write a matlab program that
- Reads in the first two lines of the matrix files - these are (n,m) the number of rows and columns in the matrix
- Reads in the nxm matrix A in the correct order - here is a link that show the correct order for matrix5
- Reads in a vector y that is m elements long
- Multiplies the matrix by the vector x = Ay
- Prints out the results
- Repeat the previous steps with Fortran
- Using Matlab, solve the problem Ax = y
- Repeat using Fortran - you will need to use some numerical libraries to do this. This part of the problem is fairly complex, and it may take a while before you can complete this task.
