Numerical Methods in Science and Engineering – A Practical Approach

During the past two decades,owing to the advent of digital computers,numerical methods of analysis have become very popular for the solution of complex problems in physical and management sciences and in engineering.As the price of hardware keeps decreasing repidly,experts predict that in the near future one may have to pay onliy for sodtware.This underscores the importance of numerical computation to the scientist and engineers and,today,most undergraduates and postgraduates are being given training in the use of computers and access to the computers for the solution of problems.
