any suggestions for a nice book regarding numerical methods in c?
Yeah, but they are more aptly called "Numerical Methods in C-tran"jhae2.718 said:Older versions are available on the site for free.

I'm not sure that's a good thing...jhae2.718 said:"The determined Real Programmer can write FORTRAN programs in any language."
laymanhobbist said:i downloaded the book from library.nu
now i have to understand methods like bisection ..
then put those methods in c statements
tough thing...

chiro said:I do recall a book (or series of books) that go under the title "Numerical Recipes in C". If it is at your library you may want to check it out.

Numerical methods in C are mathematical algorithms or procedures used to solve numerical problems, such as finding roots of equations, solving differential equations, or performing matrix operations. These methods are implemented in the C programming language for efficient and accurate computation.
Numerical methods are important because they allow us to solve complex mathematical problems that cannot be solved analytically. They are also used to analyze and interpret data in various fields such as engineering, physics, and finance.
Some commonly used numerical methods in C include the bisection method, Newton's method, the Runge-Kutta method, and Gaussian elimination. These methods can be applied to a wide range of problems and provide accurate solutions.
Yes, there are many books and online resources available for learning numerical methods in C. Some popular books include "Numerical Recipes in C" by William Press et al. and "Numerical Methods in C" by J.H. Wilkinson. Additionally, there are many tutorials and courses available online.
The most appropriate numerical method for a given problem depends on various factors such as the type of problem, the level of accuracy required, and the available resources. It is important to understand the strengths and limitations of different methods and choose the one that best suits the problem at hand.
