Features: This book features a rich selection of content, encompassing not only the typical topics of numerical methods courses but also contemporary scientific computing topics widely used today, such as evaluating special function values, generating random numbers, sorting, optimization, fast Fourier transforms, spectral analysis, wavelet transforms, statistical description and data modeling, numerical solutions of ordinary and partial differential equations, several encoding algorithms, and arbitrary precision computation. The book combines scientific rigor with practicality. For each topic, it provides mathematical analysis and comparisons of algorithms, along with author insights, recommendations, and practical programs written in C++. Readers can easily adapt these programs directly or modify them to suit specific needs. The 345 programs included in the book form a numerical computing program library in C++. This book can serve as a textbook or reference for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as a toolbook for scientists and engineers engaged in scientific computing or a reference for computer software developers.
