This introduction to Scientific Computing illustrates several numerical methods for the computer solution of certain classes of mathematical problems. The authors show how to compute the zeros or the integrals of continuous functions, solve linear systems, approximate functions by polynomials and construct accurate approximations for the solution of differential equations. To make the presentation concrete, the programming environment Matlab is adopted as a faithful companion.
