Exam type: midterm

This is a Midterm Examination for the Computational Methods course (BMED-3083) administered at the Addis Ababa Institute of Technology for 3rd-year students. The exam evaluates students' understanding of numerical analysis techniques and their application to engineering problems. Key Topics Covered: Number representation and IEEE-754 floating-point format, Taylor Series expansion, non-linear equation solving (Bisection, Newton-Raphson, and Secant methods), and systems of linear equations using Naive Gaussian Elimination. Exam Structure & Format: The exam is worth a total of 30 points with a 2-hour time limit. It is divided into two parts: Part I (12 points) consists of short-answer conceptual questions, and Part II (18 points) consists of analytical work-out problems requiring step-by-step calculations.
