<p>Can freshman take EECS 20N?</p>
<p>Yes. There are quite a few freshmen who take it, but most are second-year students.</p>
<p>The only formal prerequisite for the course is Math 1B, but you’ll also need to know basic programming constructs (for/while loops, if-then-else etc.) as well as fundamental trigonometric identities (e^(iw) = cos(w) + i*sin(w)) from high school.</p>
<p>you need to become familiar with matlab now.</p>
