Subroutines and exercises for the computer solution of problems involving matrices, integrals, differential equations, spline functions, zeros and extrema of functions, least squares, and Monte Carlo techniques. Intended primarily for a course in numerical computing, this text can be used as supplement to a more theoretical text in a numerical analysis course. The programs have been carefully written so that they easily may be used on a wide variety of computers with little or no modification (from the dustjacket) FORTRAN subroutines. Includes - Introd & bibliography; Floating-Point Computation; Random Number generation & Monte Carlo methods; Optimization; Singular Value Decomposition; Interpolation; more.
