- Full title :Numerical analysis / Richard L. Burden, J. Douglas Faires.
Summary
The ninth edition of Burden and Faires' well-respected Numerical Analysis text gives an accessible introduction to numerical analysis and its multitude of practical applications in math, engineering, computer science, and the physical sciences. The authors intuitively explain modern approximation techniques including how, why, and when they can be expected to work and why, in some situations, they fail. Virtually every concept in the text is illustrated with clear examples, and more than 2,500 exercises provide thorough practice reinforcing theory and applying the methods to real-life problems. With over three decades of proven experience, Burden and Faires remain the definitive standard for student success in numerical analysis.
