Precise numerical analysis may be defined as the study of computer methods for solving mathematical problems either exactly or to prescribed accuracy. This book

This book shows how to derive, test and analyze numerical methods for solving differential equations, including both ordinary and partial differential equations

This textbook provides an introduction to constructive methods that provide accurate approximations to the solution of numerical problems using MATLAB.

Offers students a practical knowledge of modern techniques in scientific computing.

On the occasion of this new edition, the text was enlarged by several new sections. Two sections on B-splines and their computation were added to the chapter on
