An Introduction to Numerical Methods Summary

An Introduction to Numerical Methods: A MATLAB (R) Approach, Fourth Edition by Abdelwahab Kharab

Previous editions of this popular textbook offered an accessible and practical introduction to numerical analysis. An Introduction to Numerical Methods: A MATLAB (R) Approach, Fourth Edition continues to present a wide range of useful and important algorithms for scientific and engineering applications. The authors use MATLAB to illustrate each numerical method, providing full details of the computed results so that the main steps are easily visualized and interpreted. This edition also includes a new chapter on Dynamical Systems and Chaos.

Features

  • Covers the most common numerical methods encountered in science and engineering
  • Illustrates the methods using MATLAB
  • Presents numerous examples and exercises, with selected answers at the back of the book

An Introduction to Numerical Methods Reviews

Praise for Previous Editions

Kharab and Guenther offer an attractive, clear, error-free, and well-written introduction to numerical methods ... Highly recommended.

- J.H. Ellison, CHOICE

Praise for the New Edition

An Introduction to Numerical Methods: A MATLAB Approach provides a solid introduction to Numerical Methods. The book is easy to follow and most of the numerical methods are included making it ideal for students with little prior knowledge on the subject. The mathematical theories and explanations are quite easy to understand, several accompanying in-depth examples are provided, and most of the content is shared in a simple and direct manner.

Overall, this is one of the best numerical methods book that I have come across. I strongly recommend it to be used for any undergraduate introductory course in numerical analysis for science and engineering students.
