Numerical methods in engineering with Python 3 - United Kingdom -- CUP -- 2013 - 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.
