- xi, 423p.
Introduction to Python
Systems of linear algebraic equations
Interpolation and curve fitting
Roots of equations
Numerical differentiation
Numerical integration
Initial value problems
Two-point boundary value problems
Symmetric matrix eigenvalue problems
Introduction to optimization
This book is an introduction to numerical methods for students in engineering. It covers solution of equations, interpolation and data fitting, solution of differential equations, eigenvalue problems and optimisation. The algorithms are implemented in Python 3, a high-level programming language that rivals MATLAB in readability and ease of use. All methods include programs showing how the computer code is utilised in the solution of problems. The book is based on Numerical Methods in Engineering with Python, which used Python 2. This new edition demonstrates the use of Python 3 and includes an introduction to the Python plotting package Matplotlib. This comprehensive book is enhanced by the addition of numerous examples and problems throughout.
