商品簡介
Dahlquist (late numerical analysis, Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden) and Bjork (mathematics, Linkoping U.) consider traditional and well-developed topics as well as concepts important to the design of accurate and efficient algorithms with applications to scientific computing. Along with traditional content they include material rarely found in numerical analysis texts, such as interval arithmetic, elementary functions, operator series, convergence acceleration and continued fractions. Armed with exercises, they begin with the principles of numerical calculations and proceed to accurate estimating, series, operators, the aforesaid continued fractions, interpolation and approximation, numerical integration and scalar nonlinear equations. They include material about their online offerings, including appendices and a guide to the literature. The illustrations are particularly helpful and plentiful. This is suitable for a basic graduate-level course in numerical analysis. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
