Book News, Inc., 04/30/94:
A textbook for sophomores and juniors in engineering, science,
mathematics, and computer science, or sourcebook for practicing
engineers and scientists who need to use numerical analysis to solve
problems. It gives a broad coverage of the field, emphasizing
practical applications rather than theory. Among the changes in this
edition is the addition of a new chapter that introduces a description
of computer algebra systems which offer an alternative to writing a
program to solve a problem, and a discussion of parallel processing
and how this can be adapted to numerical procedures. Another
change is the inclusion of programs in BASIC, Pascal, C, and Ada,
in addition to FORTRAN. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.

Synopsis:
A valuable book/disk set offering scientists, engineers, statisticians, and
programmers a toolbox of essential numerical routines in C and C++. The
programs are all be written in C, with C++ extensions provided where the
object-oriented language provides a benefit. Providing the routines in both C and
C++ helps scientists and engineers familiar with C to learn C++.
Book News, Inc., 06/01/96:
Provides mathematical routines for analyzing complex numerical data, offering
code written in C, with C++ extensions, for solving linear and nonlinear
equations; interpolation; differentiation; integration; optimization of single variable
and multivariable functions; linear regressions; and multiple and polynomial
regression. Includes libraries for common mathematical and statistical functions,
pseudo- code for the algorithms used to implement the various methods, and
information on basic statistics and ANOVA tests. Annotation c. by Book News,

Synopsis:
This comprehensive book accomplishes two important goals. It teaches the
basics of numerical methods by presenting the concepts that students must
master in order to continue on to more challenging mathematics and engineering,
and it introduces readers to the use of MATLAB software. The book includes a
MATLAB tutorial that provides readers with the opportunity for hands-on
learning.
