Build Instructions

Visit the releases page to download the latest version of the lab curriculum.

To gain access to the entire repository, fork this repository and clone it. Each volume can then be built separately using the LaTex files listed below.

• Volume 1, Mathematical Analysis: Volume1.tex
• Volume 2, Algorithm Design and Optimization: Volume2.tex
• Volume 3, Modeling with Uncertainty and Data: Volume3.tex
• Volume 4, Modeling with Dynamics and Control: Volume4.tex

Compile the files using TeXShop or a similar program, or via the command line:

$ latexmk -pdf Volume1.tex

or

$ pdflatex Volume1.tex

(These commands create a PDF called, for example, Volume1.pdf.)

Data Files

The data sets used in these labs can be found at Foundations-of-Applied-Mathematics/Data, organized by volume.
