About this title

Synopsis

This extensive library of computer programs-written in C language-allows readers to solve numerical problems in areas of linear algebra, ordinary and partial differential equations, optimization, parameter estimation, and special functions of mathematical physics.The library is based on NUMAL, the program assemblage developed and used at the Centre for Mathematics and Computer Science in Amsterdam, one of the world's leading research centers. The important characteristic of the library is its modular structure. Because it is highly compact, it is well-suited for use on personal computers.The library offers the expert a prodigious collection of procedures for implementing numerical methods. The novice can experiment with the worked examples provided and use the more comprehensive procedures to perform mathematical computations. The library provides a powerful research tool for computer scientists, engineers, and applied mathematicians. Applicable materials can be downloaded from the CRC Press website.
