Very good service, fast shipping, and it is one the best books to start with. Lots of examples and algorithms for programs.
Good

The first book on the topic that is written in an way that you can understand it. I recommend this book to any frustrated student out there!
A good textbook and handbook for real analyzer
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
In my first year of graduate life, I implemented many algorithms on this book, and made them work fairly well. The pseudo code in the book is very clear while the proof of theorem and algorithm are easily to be understood. To learn from the book is an enjoyment to me. Frankly speaking, it took me into the field of Numerical Analysis. Maybe you might thought the proof and convergence analysis were a little dull,but please notice they are esscential to a professional analyzer.
Very moderate calculus is all it takes
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Anyone who thinks this book is too difficult and/or requires a Ph.D. in mathematics has simply never learned any math, such as calculus and linear algebra. In that case, it's indeed easier to simply buy software that implements all the necessary numerical algorithms. This book is not a set of instructions for using a calculator, it is a book for an intelligent reader who thinks creatively and wants to understand the logic behind classical numerical methods.Very transparent, clear, and straight to the point this book is all I needed to quickly learn about the Gaussian quadrature and understanding both the algorithm itself as well as WHY IT WORKS AND DOES SO EFFICIENTLY. Please disregard the previous author's review, as its poisonous tone alone should suggest that he is trying to blame his own mathematical deficiencies upon the authors of this very worthwhile text.
Good book

I would disagree with the previous reviewer. I found that this book explains well and is easy to follow. This book is suited for the entry level. With moderate calculus, you should be able to read this book.
