The product of a unique collaboration among four leading scientists in academic research and industry, Numerical Recipes is a complete text and reference book on scientific computing. In a self-contained manner it proceeds from mathematical and theoretical considerations to actual practical computer routines. With over 100 new routines bringing the total to well over 300, plus upgraded versions of the original routines, the new edition remains the most practical, comprehensive handbook of scientific computing available today.
Note: This edition only includes the diskette.
A considerable (50%) expansion of what has come to be the handbook of first resort in scientific computation. A few new chapters were added, and, mainly, many more topics/techniques are now concisely discussed. A great addition to any reference collection, even if you already have the first edition. The text comes in both C and Fortran editions. Cambridge also makes available the following companion products, which our customers have found extremely valuable in their own right: Example books---- tutorial guides to using the routines within your own programs Program disks---- all 300+ routines from the text itself, plus sample programs from the example books. For the basic book, example books, and disks, be sure to specify whether Fortran or C editions are preferred; for the disks, be sure to specify IBM (3.5" or 5.25") or Macintosh formats.
