An introduction to numerical analysis combining rigour with practical applications, and providing numerous exercises plus solutions.

Introduction to numerical analysis combining rigour with practical applications. Numerous exercises plus solutions.

Klappentext
This textbook is written primarily for undergraduate mathematicians but it will also appeal to students working at an advanced level in other disciplines. The text begins with a clear motivation for the study of numerical analysis based on real world problems. The authors then develop the necessary machinery including iteration, interpolation, boundary value problems and finite elements. Throughout, the authors keep an eye on the analytical basis for the work and add interest with historical notes on the development of the subject. There are numerous exercises for students.

Zusammenfassung
Based on a successful course at Oxford University, this book gives an authoritative introduction to numerical analysis. It is ideal as a text for students in the second year of a university mathematics course. It combines practicality regarding applications with consistently high standards of rigour. Numerous exercises are provided.
