So, I will be brief.Computing requires an integrated approach, in which scientific and mathematicalanalysis, numerical algorithms, and programming are developed and used together.The purpose of this book is to provide an introduction to analysis, numerics, andtheir applications.
I believe that a firm grounding in the basic concepts and methodsin these areas is necessary if you wish to use numerical recipes effectively. Thetopics that I develop extensively are drawn mostly from applied mathematics, thephysical sciences, and engineering. They are divided almost equally among reviewof the mathematics, numerical-analysis methods (such as differentiation, integration,and solution of differential equations from the sciences and engineering), and dataanalysis applications (such as splines, least-squares fitting, and Fourier expansions).I call this a workbook, since I think that the best way to learn numerically oriented computing is to work many examples.
Therefore, you will notice and, I hope,solve many of the exercises that are strewn throughout the text like rocks in thestream of consciousness. I try to introduce you to a technique, show you some ofthe steps, then let you work out further steps and developments yourself. I alsosuggest new and scenic routes rather than overtraveled highways.
There are occasional diversions from the mainstream, often to point out how a topic that we are developing fits in with others in computing and its applications.The programming language in which I present programs is C. This language isnow used extensively in systems development, data-acquisition systems, numericalmethods, and in many engineering applications. To accommodate readers who prefer Fortran or Pascal, I have used only the numerically oriented parts of C and I havevvistructured the programs so that they can usually be translated line-by-line to theseother languages if you insist. The appendix summarizes the correspondences between the three languages. All programs and the functions they use are listed in theindex to programs. The fully-developed programs are usually included in the projects near the end of each chapter.This book may be used either in a regular course or for self-study.
In a onesemester course for college students at the junior level or above (including graduatestudents), more than half the topics in the book could be covered in detail. There isadequate cross-referencing between chapters, in addition to references to sources forpreparation and for further exploration of topics. It is therefore possible to beselective of topics within each chapter.Now that we have an idea of where we’re heading, let’s get going and compute!William J. ThompsonChapel Hill, July 1992CONTENTS1.

Характеристики
Тип файла PDF
PDF-формат наиболее широко используется для просмотра любого типа файлов на любом устройстве. В него можно сохранить документ, таблицы, презентацию, текст, чертежи, вычисления, графики и всё остальное, что можно показать на экране любого устройства. Именно его лучше всего использовать для печати.
Например, если Вам нужно распечатать чертёж из автокада, Вы сохраните чертёж на флешку, но будет ли автокад в пункте печати? А если будет, то нужная версия с нужными библиотеками? Именно для этого и нужен формат PDF - в нём точно будет показано верно вне зависимости от того, в какой программе создали PDF-файл и есть ли нужная программа для его просмотра.
