9781461271611: C Programming: The Essentials for Engineers and Scientists (Undergraduate Texts in Computer Science)

Synopsis

This text teaches the essentials of C programming, concentrating on what readers need to know in order to produce stand-alone programs and so solve typical scientific and engineering problems. It is a learning-by-doing book, with many examples and exercises, and lays a foundation of scientific programming concepts and techniques that will prove valuable for those who might eventually move on to another language. Written for undergraduates who are familiar with computers and typical applications but are new to programming.

From the Back Cover

This is an introductory book on computer programming for scientists and engineers based on the C language. It is a learn-by-doing book teaching the reader to write small stand-alone programs in C to solve typical scientific / engineering problems. As such it differs markedly from a C book for CS majors. It has many examples and exercises and is for computer literate but non-programming undergraduates.
