{"title":"Philip Joyce","description":null,"products":[{"product_id":"numerical-c-book-philip-joyce-9781484250631","title":"Numerical C","description":"Learn applied numerical computing using the C programming language, starting with a quick primer on the C programming language and its SDK. This book then dives into progressively more complex applied math formula for computational methods using C with examples throughout and a larger, more complete application towards the end.   Numerical C starts with the quadratic formula for finding solutions to algebraic equations that model things such as price vs. demand or rise vs. run or slip and more. Later in the book, you'll work on the augmented matrix method for simultaneous equations.   You’ll also cover Monte Carlo method model objects that could arise naturally as part of the modeling of a real-life system, such as a complex road network, the transport of neutrons, or the evolution of the stock market. Furthermore, the Monte Carlo method of integration examines the area under a curve including rendering or ray tracing and the shading in a region.   Furthermore, you'll work with the product moment correlation coefficient: correlation is a technique for investigating the relationship between two quantitative, continuous variables, for example, age and blood pressure. By the end of the book, you'll have a feeling for what computer software could do to help you in your work and apply some of the methods learned directly to your work.   What You Will Learn   Gain software and C programming basics Write software to solve applied, computational mathematics problems  Create programs to solve equations and calculus problems  Use the trapezium method, Monte Carlo method, line of best fit, product moment correlation coefficient, Simpson’s rule, and matrix solutions  Write code to solve differential equations   Apply one or more of the methods to an application case study   Who This Book Is For Those with an existing knowledge of rudimentary mathematics (school level) and some basic programming experience. This is also important to people who may work in mathematics or other areas (for example, life sciences, engineering, or economics) and need to learn C programming.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50951714144529,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50951714177297,"sku":"GOR014141694","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52135953760529,"sku":"NLS9781484250631","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52750718566673,"sku":"NIN9781484250631","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/148425063X.jpg?v=1751116039"},{"product_id":"practical-numerical-c-programming-book-philip-joyce-9781484261279","title":"Practical Numerical C Programming","description":"Master the C code appropriate for numerical methods and computational modeling, including syntax, loops, subroutines, and files. Then, this hands-on book dives into financial applications using regression models, product moment correlation coefficients, and asset pricing.     Next, Practical Numerical C Programming covers applications for engineering\/business such as supermarket stock reordering simulation as well as flight information boards at airports and controlling a power plant. Finally, the book concludes with some  physics including building simulation models for energy and pendulum motion. Along the way, you’ll learn center-of-mass calculations, Brownian motion, and more.     After reading and using this book, you'll come away with pragmatic case studies of actual applications using C code at work. Source code is freely available and includes the latest C20 standard release.      What You Will Learn      Apply regression techniques      to find the pattern for depreciation of the value of cars over a period of      years Work with the product moment      correlation coefficient technique to illustrate the accuracy (or      otherwise) of regression techniques Use the past stock values of      an asset to predict what its future values may be using Monte Carlo      methods Simulate the buying of supermarket      stock by shoppers and check the remaining stock: if it is too low print a      message to reorder the stock Create a file of arrivals      for an airport and send data to the airport’s display boards to show      the current situation for the incoming flights Simulate the patterns of      particles moving in gases or solids    Who This Book Is For     Programmers and computational modelers with at least some prior experience with programming in C as well as programming in general.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51029315780881,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51029318435089,"sku":"NIN9781484261279","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52684744950033,"sku":"NLS9781484261279","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1484261275.jpg?v=1750827459"},{"product_id":"c-and-python-applications-book-philip-joyce-9781484277737","title":"C and Python Applications","description":"Beginning-Intermediate","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53522183749905,"sku":"NLS9781484277737","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781484277737.jpg?v=1778457259"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-philip-joyce.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
