This textbook provides an accessible and concise introduction to
numerical analysis for upper undergraduate and beginning graduate
students from various backgrounds. It was developed from the
lecture notes of four successful courses on numerical analysis
taught within the MPhil of Scientific Computing at the University
of Cambridge. The book is easily accessible, even to those with
limited knowledge of mathematics. Students will get a concise, but
thorough introduction to numerical analysis. In addition the
algorithmic principles are emphasized to encourage a deeper
understanding of why an algorithm is suitable, and sometimes
unsuitable, for a particular problem. A Concise Introduction to
Numerical Analysis strikes a balance between being mathematically
comprehensive, but not overwhelming with mathematical detail. In
some places where further detail was felt to be out of scope of the
book, the reader is referred to further reading. The book uses
MATLAB (R) implementations to demonstrate the workings of the
method and thus MATLAB's own implementations are avoided, unless
they are used as building blocks of an algorithm. In some cases the
listings are printed in the book, but all are available online on
the book's page at www.crcpress.com. Most implementations are in
the form of functions returning the outcome of the algorithm. Also,
examples for the use of the functions are given. Exercises are
included in line with the text where appropriate, and each chapter
ends with a selection of revision exercises. Solutions to
odd-numbered exercises are also provided on the book's page at
www.crcpress.com. This textbook is also an ideal resource for
graduate students coming from other subjects who will use numerical
techniques extensively in their graduate studies.
