Eigenvalues with LinearAlgebra: normal modes of coupled oscillators

Afterwards you can turn springs into a matrix, solve it with backslash, pick eigen for symmetric, general, or mass-weighted problems, and check eigenvectors.

Fit a curve with error bars and draw a confidence band in Julia

Afterwards you can fit a model to data with known uncertainties using LsqFit, report parameter errors you can defend, and shade a confidence band.

The Fourier transform in Julia: asking a signal how much of each frequency it contains

Afterwards you can say what a Fourier transform computes, read an amplitude spectrum, and tell how long a record you need to separate two nearby frequencies.
