 | you don't teach introductory numerical analysis

 | you teach introductory computer programming
 | at the same time as
 | you teach introductory calculus
 | at the same time as ....

 | (exception: many learn most of the useful math stuff in their physics 
 | class first, at least in North America.)

 If it serves as consolation, this is taught the same way in Brazilian
 Engineering/CS schools. In the very first physics class you'll  get 
 a survival derivative table and use it, two/three months later 
 (*after* the first exams)  you will learn all about in Calculus 101.
