	A First Course In Numerical Methods by Uri M. Ascher, Chen Greif
	Price : Rs 495.00
	Your Price : Rs 420.75

A First Course in Numerical Methodsis aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students of all engineering disciplines and the students of mathematics and other science disciplines, to enable them to gain practical knowledge of modern techniques in scientific computing. Avoiding encyclopedic and heavily theoretical exposition, the book provides an in-depth treatment of fundamental issues and methods, the reasons behind the success and failure of numerical software, and fresh and easy-to-follow approaches and techniques.

Focuses on current methods, issues, and software while providing a comprehensive theoretical foundation, enabling those who need to apply the techniques to successfully design solutions to nonstandard problems.
Illustrates algorithms using the programming environment of MATLAB, with the expectation that the reader will gradually become proficient in it while learning the material covered in the book.
Provides a variety of exercises within each chapter and review questions aimed at self-testing.
The book takes an algorithmic approach, focusing on techniques that have a high level of applicability to engineering, computer science, and applied mathematics.
