Summary

This project course is build on the SCRUM project management methodology. In the first lesson students lesen how SCRUM works. After that they organize the lab Work on their own. The just her three programming lab projects organized in three SCRUM sprints. The results of the work should be documented using Matlab Live Editor. The first project is to program a solver for a linear equation system in different ways and to compare the results with the solver given by MATLAB. The second project is to build and to solve a ohne dimensional differential equation of a accelerating car. The Last Part is to bring both works together to program a lander starting from the moon in three dimensional space.
