โœฆ Synopsis

Professor Yudell L. Luke, who died at the age of 64 on 6 May 1983 was a distinguished mathematician whose work was concerned with the numerical approximations of functions. His working life covered a period when aids to computation moved from electro-mechanical to electronic devices. As a result of these technological changes the art of table making evolved into that of the design of algorithms capable of evaluating a mathematical function for a given value of its argument without reference to previously tabulated values. The mathematical analysis of these computational procedures matured into a vigorous branch of modern mathematics, which retained close links with classical analysis and incorporated many new ideas. Professor Luke contributed significantly to its development.
