9780131653320: Computer Methods for Mathematical Computations

Synopsis

Subroutines and exercises for the computer solution of problems involving matrices, integrals, differential equations, spline functions, zeros and extrema of functions, least squares, and Monte Carlo techniques. Intended primarily for a course in numerical computing, this text can be used as supplement to a more theoretical text in a numerical analysis course.

The programs have been carefully written so that they easily may be used on a wide variety of computers with little or no modification (from the dustjacket) FORTRAN subroutines. Includes - Introd & bibliography; Floating-Point Computation; Random Number generation & Monte Carlo methods; Optimization; Singular Value Decomposition; Interpolation; more.
