Overview: Offers a combination of problems, algorithms, programs, exercises, illustrations and numerical solutions.Includes 100 examples, 145 solved exercises and 43 Matlab and Octave programs.Each chapter open.This textbook is an introduction to Scientific Computing, in which several numerical methods for the computer-based solution of certain classes of mathematical problems are illustrated. The authors show how to compute the zeros, the extrema, and the integrals of continuous functions, solve linear systems, approximate functions using polynomials and construct accurate approximations for
