Description

The fifth edition of this classic book continues its excellence in teaching numerical analysis and techniques. Interesting and timely applications motivate an understanding of methods and analysis of results. Suitable for students with mathematics and engineering backgrounds, the breadth of topics (partial differential equations, systems of nonlinear equations, and matrix algebra), provide comprehensive and flexible coverage of all aspects of all numerical analysis. New sections discuss the use of computer algebra systems such as Mathematica, Maple and DERIVE facilitate the integration of technology in the course.
