This book provides a clear and precise exposition of modern numerical techniques. It is designed as a suitable text-book for engineering and science students upto the postgraduate level. Each method is illustrated by a number of solved examples.
Inside the book 1.Approximation and Errors in Computation 2.Solutions of Algebraic and Transcendental Equations 3.Solutions of Simultaneous Algebraic Equations 4.Matrix Inversion and Eigen-Value Problems 5.Empirical Laws and Curve-fitting 6.Finite Difference 7.Interpolation 8.Numerical Differentiation and Integration 9.Difference Equations 10.Numerical Solutions of Ordinary Differential Equations 11.Numerical Solutions of Partial Differential Equations 12.Linear Programming 13.Review of Computers 14.Numerical Methods using C, C++, MATLAB
This book covers a vast amount of topics and problems, but the problem being that there are much less examples to learn the solving from. The concepts itself discussed are not clear, and combine that with the lack of examples to follow, there is no progression before you get to the tougher numericals, which of course, have no solution.
At least the programs are clear somewhat. This book makes a very easy topic with deep thinking required almost inapproachable to learn.
