A clear introduction to practical numerical methods
Good Condition – Dust jacket has light edge wear, minor creasing and small scuffs, with slight age-related discolouration.
First Steps in Numerical Analysis introduces the computational techniques used to solve mathematical problems that cannot be handled conveniently by exact methods alone. Written for students beginning the subject, it explains how approximation, iteration and error analysis are applied to equations, interpolation, differentiation, integration and related numerical tasks. The authors develop each method carefully, linking mathematical ideas with practical procedures and worked examples. Attention is given to the accuracy, stability and limitations of numerical results, helping readers understand not only how an algorithm works but when it is appropriate to use. The book provides a structured foundation for further study in applied mathematics, science, engineering and computing.
