Description
Emphasizing applications rather than a mathematical emphasis this book provides an introduction to the approximation techniques used to solve problems that arise in science and engineering. Techniques are described from an implementation standpoint to convince students that methods are reasonable both mathematically and computationally. Software written in both FORTRAN and Pascal is bound into the text and information on the general purpose software packages distributed by the International Mathematical and Statistical Library (IMSL) is included.
