Inhaltsangabe

This book is a concise and lucid introduction to computer oriented numerical methods with well-chosen graphical illustrations that give an insight into the mechanism of various methods. The book develops computational algorithms for solving non-linear algebraic equation, sets of linear equations, curve-fitting, integration, differentiation, and solving ordinary differential equations.

OUTSTANDING FEATURES:

• Elementary presentation of numerical methods using computers for solving a variety of problems for students who have only basic level knowledge of mathematics.
• Geometrical illustrations used to explain how numerical algorithms are evolved.
• Emphasis on implementation of numerical algorithm on computers.
• Detailed discussion of IEEE standard for representing floating point numbers.
• Algorithms derived and presented using a simple English based structured language.
• Truncation and rounding errors in numerical calculations explained.
• Each chapter starts with learning goals and all methods illustrated with numerical examples.
• Appendix gives pointers to open source libraries for numerical computation.
