Numerical Methods

Designed for the core course on the subject, this book seeks to provide students with a sound introduction to Numerical Methods. Logical arrangement of topics, clarity of presentation and illustration through examples aid the student in becoming adept at applying the methods.

A number of unique features make this book different from other existing books in the field.

Highlights of the Book

• Mathematical derivation of each method is given to build the reader's understanding of numerical analysis. Algorithms are given using pseudocodes, whenever possible.

• The concept, cause and consequence of errors in the application of numerical computing is highlighted.

Error analysis of each method is tackled in detail. • Emphasis on computer arithmetic, different from real arithmetic.
