Numerical mathematics and computing

By: Cheney, Ward | Kincaid, David
Language: English Publisher: Delhi Cengage c2013Edition: 7th edDescription: xxii, 678p.; 25cmISBN: 9788131519523Subject(s): Mathematics | Numerical analysis | Mathematics -- Computer application | Numerical analysis -- Data processingDDC classification: 518.0285 CHE/N Online resources: Publisher's URL Summary: Authors Ward Cheney and David Kincaid show students of science and engineering the potential computers have for solving numerical problems and give them ample opportunities to hone their skills in programming and problem solving. NUMERICAL MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTING, 7E, also helps students learn about errors that inevitably accompany scientific computations and arms them with methods for detecting, predicting, and controlling these errors
