Numerical Methods and Analysis (Hardcover)

Intended for a first course in numerical methods or numerical analysis taken by junior and senior level students, this book assumes a knowledge of calculus, linear algebra and differential equations. It covers numerical approximation/interpolation, graphics, and parallel computing. The interplay between hardware and software considerations in numerical algorithm design recurs throughout. A portion of the programs in the book are written in Turbo Pascal; the remainder are pseudocode or generalized algorithms. Programs used in the text will be available on a disk for instructors to use and copy.
