Description: | This book intends to serve a very broad audience of college students across a variety of disciplines. It exposes its readers to some of the basic tools and techniques used in computational science, with a view to helping them understand what happens ‘behind the scenes’ when simple tools are used. ScientificComputation has established itself as a stand-alone area of knowledge at theborderline between computer science and applied mathematics. Nonetheless, itsinterdisciplinary character cannot be denied: its methodologies are increasinglyused in a wide variety of branches of science and engineering. A Gentle Introduction to Scientific Computing To make the book aspractical as possible, the authors explore their subject both from atheoretical, mathematical perspective and from an implementation-driven,programming perspective.
