By: Burden, Richard L [author.].
Contributor(s): Faires, J. Douglas [author.] | Burden, Annette M [author.].
Boston, MA : Cengage Learning, ©2016Edition: Tenth edition.Description: xvi, 896 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 27 cm.Content type: text ISBN: 9781305253667 (hbk.); 1305253663 (hbk.).Subject(s): Numerical analysis | Numerical analysisDDC classification: 518/B89 Other classification: COECS/E
Contents:
Mathematical preliminaries and error analysis -- Solutions of equations in one variable -- Interpolation and polynomial approximation -- Numerical differentiation and integration -- Initial-value problems for ordinary differential equations -- Direct methods for solving linear systems -- Iterative techniques in matrix algebra -- Approximation theory -- Approximating Eigenvalues -- Numerical solutions of nonlinear systems of equations -- Boundary-value problems for ordinary differential equations -- Numerical solutions to partial differential equations.
Summary: Introduces readers to the theory and application of modern numerical approximation techniques. Providing an accessible treatment that only requires a calculus prerequisite, the authors explain how, why, and when approximation techniques can be expected to work - and why, in some situations, they fail.
