Description for Numerical Methods: Design, Analysis, and Computer Implementation of Algorithms
Hardback. Provides an exploration of standard numerical analysis topics, as well as non-traditional ones, including mathematical modeling, Monte Carlo methods, Markov chains, and fractals. This textbook considers modern application areas, such as information retrieval and animation, and classical topics from physics and engineering. Num Pages: 464 pages, 78 halftones. 145 line illus. BIC Classification: PBKS; PBWH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 255 x 187 x 31. Weight in Grams: 1128.
Numerical Methods provides a clear and concise exploration of standard numerical analysis topics, as well as nontraditional ones, including mathematical modeling, Monte Carlo methods, Markov chains, and fractals. Filled with appealing examples that will motivate students, the textbook considers modern application areas, such as information retrieval and animation, and classical topics from physics and engineering. Exercises use MATLAB and promote understanding of computational results. The book gives instructors the flexibility to emphasize different aspects--design, analysis, or computer implementation--of numerical algorithms, depending on the background and interests of students. Designed for upper-division undergraduates in mathematics or computer science classes, the textbook ... Read more

Reviews for Numerical Methods: Design, Analysis, and Computer Implementation of Algorithms
"Distinguishing features are the inclusion of many recent applications of numerical methods and the extensive discussion of methods based on Chebyshev interpolation. This book would be suitable for use in courses aimed at advanced undergraduate students in mathematics, the sciences, and engineering."
