Elementary Theory and Application of Numerical Analysis: Revised Edition

by David G. Moursund, James E. Miller, Charles S. Duris

Overview

This updated introduction to modern numerical analysis is a complete revision of a classic text originally written in Fortran but now featuring the programming language C++. It focuses on a relatively small number of basic concepts and techniques. Many exercises appear throughout the text, most with solutions. An extensive tutorial explains how to solve problems with C++.
