Features: As a mathematical reference book, what characteristics should such a massive handbook possess? During the writing process, the publisher's leader and we reached a consensus that the handbook should be scientific, advanced, practical, standardized, and concise. Over 200 contributors and reviewers worked tirelessly according to these features and requirements, and we would like to thank their cooperative efforts, which have made the handbook basically reflect the desired characteristics mentioned above. This series is a key publishing project of the country's "Ninth Five-Year Plan." For the convenience of readers in selecting and using the handbook, it is published in 5 volumes, named "Classical Mathematics Volume," "Modern Mathematics Volume," "Computer Mathematics Volume," "Stochastic Mathematics Volume," and "Economic Mathematics Volume." It should be noted that the categorization of each branch (item) is relative, considering the balance of the length of each volume. For example, the section "Monte Carlo Method" could also be included in the "Computer Mathematics Volume."
