Annotation:The course introduces numerical methods which can be suitable applied in construction of educational materials for mathematics. In the introduction, the basic concepts and properties of chosen mathematical problems are explained. These problems are further solved using the numerical methods. There are the approaches of differential and integral calculus. Further, the basic methods of optimization are presented for the purposes of an analysis of a course of functions. Chosen examples are implemented in MS Excel and Octave. The elementary essential techniques of programming are explained.
