Description
Cengage Learning Numerical Mathematics And Computing,7Th Edition by Cheney
More Accessible: Computer codes and other material are now included on the text website-giving you and your students easy access without tedious typing. Matlab, Mathematica, and Maple computer codes and the ?Overview of Mathematical Software appendix are all now available online. Visual Learning: Because concrete codes and visual aids are helpful to every reader, the authors have added even more figures and numerical examples throughout the text-ensuring students gain solid understanding before advancing to new topics. Comprehensive, Current and Cutting Edge: Completely updated, the new edition includes new sections and material on such topics as the modified false position method, the conjugate gradient method, Simpsons method, and more. Hands-On Applications: Giving students myriad opportunities to put chapter concepts into real practice, additional exercises involving applications are presented throughout. References: Citation to recent references reflects the latest developments from the field. Appendices: Reorganized and revamped, new appendices offer a wealth of supplemental material, including advice on good programming practices, coverage of numbers in different bases, details on IEEE floating-point arithmetic, and discussions of linear algebra concepts and notation. UPDATED! The Solving Systems of Linear Equations chapter has been moved earlier in the text to provide more clarity throughout the text. NEW! Exercises, computer exercises, and application exercises have been added to the text. NEW! A section of Fourier Series and Fast Fourier Transforms has been added. The first two chapters in the previous edition on Mathematical Preliminaries, Taylor Series, Oating-Point Representation, and Errors have been combined into a single introductory chapter to allow instructors and students to move quickly. Some sections and material have been re-moved from the new edition such as the introductory section on numerical integration.
