This book is primarily intended for undergraduates in mathematics,
the physical sciences and engineering. It introduces students to
most of the techniques forming the core component of courses in
numerical analysis. The text is divided into eight chapters which
are largely self-contained. However, with a subject as intricately
woven as mathematics, there is inevitably some interdependence
between them. The level of difficulty varies and, although emphasis
is firmly placed on the methods themselves rather than their
analysis, we have not hesitated to include theoretical material
when we consider it to be sufficiently interesting. However, it
should be possible to omit those parts that do seem daunting while
still being able to follow the worked examples and to tackle the
exercises accompanying each section. Familiarity with the basic
results of analysis and linear algebra is assumed since these are
normally taught in first courses on mathematical methods. For
reference purposes a list of theorems used in the text is given in
the appendix.
