Elementary Numerical Analysis

by Kendall E. Atkinson, Weimin Han

Offering a clear, precise, and accessible presentation, complete with MATLAB programs, this new Third Edition of Elementary Numerical Analysis gives students the support they need to master basic numerical analysis and scientific computing. Now updated and revised, this significant revision features reorganized and rewritten content, as well as some new additional examples and problems. The text introduces core areas of numerical analysis and scientific computing along with basic themes of numerical analysis such as the approximation of problems by simpler methods, the construction of algorithms, iteration methods, error analysis, stability, asymptotic error formulas, and the effects of machine arithmetic.

Not bed, it was my first book about numerical calculations. 3 stars because of author describes one variable functions only (one variable approximations, one variable Gauss quadrature).
