Covers basic topics as well as approximation methods, construction of algorithms, iteration methods, error analysis, stability, asymptotic error formulas and the effect of machine arithmetic. Computer programming applications are given in Fortran-77. Features numerous graphs, problems and exercises at the end of each section.
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).
