Features: This book introduces the basic concepts and methods of numerical computation, focusing on commonly used algorithms in engineering calculations, such as error theory, root-finding for nonlinear equations, function interpolation, numerical integration, numerical solutions for first-order ordinary differential equations, one-dimensional search methods for finding the extrema of univariate functions, data fitting, and methods for solving systems of linear equations. Each chapter includes a summary of its content and a certain number of exercises. The final chapter is a computational practice section, where each exercise provides the purpose and requirements, an overview of the algorithm, a program written in C and debugged on Turbo C2.0, examples, and exercises. This book can serve as a textbook for students in computer science programs or other engineering disciplines at higher vocational colleges or technical secondary schools, as well as a self-study reference for undergraduate students or general engineering technicians.
