About this title

Synopsis:

Concise but wide-ranging, this text provides an introduction to methods of approximating continuous functions by functions that depend only on a finite number of parameters ― an important technique in the field of digital computation. Written for upper-level graduate students, it presupposes a knowledge of advanced calculus and linear algebra. 1969 edition.
