Preface

Applications of mathematics invariably boil down to numerical results. The aim of this book, Numerical Analysis, is to present the important principles, methods and processes used for obtaining these results in a systematic and simple way with accuracy and clarity. The book can cater to the needs of undergraduate and postgraduate students of science and engineering courses offered in Indian universities. Keeping the treatment simple, the procedures are illustrated with typical examples and problems taken from various university question papers.

The topics of the book are presented in 11 chapters.

Chapter 1 gives a brief discussion of errors in approximations.

Chapter 2 deals with the direct and iterative methods of solving algebraic ...
