Mathematics

Paperback. The development of computing has reawakened interest in algorithms. Often neglected by historians and modern scientists, algorithmic procedures have been instrumental in the development of fundamental ideas: practice led to theory just as much as the other way round. This book offers a historical background to contemporary algorithmic practice. Editor(s): Chabert, Jean-Luc. Num Pages: 524 pages, 46 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PBWH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 27. Weight in Grams: 746.
