Designed to help people solve numerical problems on small computers, this book's main subject areas are numerical linear algebra, function minimization and root-finding. This edition has been revised and updated, the main difference being that the algorithms are presented in Turbo Pascal.
This second edition of 'Compact Numerical Methods For Computers' presents reliable yet compact algorithms for computational problems. The author: considers specific mathematical problems of wide applicability; develops approaches to a solution and consequent algorithm; and provides the program steps
The interplay between computation and many areas of algebra is a natural phenomenon in view of the algorithmic character of the latter. The existence of inexpensive but powerful computational resources has enhanced these links by the opening up of many new areas of investigation in algebra.
<P>From the reviews: </P> <P>"... Many parts of the book can be read by anyone with a basic abstract algebra course... it was one of the author's intentions to equip students who are interested in computational problems with the necessary algebraic background in pure mathematics and to encourage the
