The distinct feature of this book is its orientation towards the practical use of microcomputers in relatively advanced numerical analysis. It gives concise yet adequate theory for those not seeking to solve over complex problems, and provides a clear understanding of the subject and its applications. The book includes 65 BASIC programs for microcomputers. The descriptions of the numerical procedures are enhanced by illustrating them with numerical output from the programs. In addition the programs, most of which have been used and tested by the authors and their students, allow the readerto learn by experimentation. Problems are provided at the end of each chapter with solutions to help self-study
