Practical Numerical Methods for Scientists and Engineers

In this book, scientists and engineers will receive a thorough introduction to numerical computing. Science and engineering students as well as researchers are intended to benefit from this publication. Throughout the book, seven modules are presented: Module 1: provides an Introduction to MATLAB, Module 2: introduces loops and conditions in MATLAB and Excel, Module 3: covers different methods to solve the roots of a single equation, Module 4: covers different methods to find the roots of a system of equations, Module 5: introduces descriptive statistics and methods to evaluate regressions, Module 6: presents interpolation methods, and Module 7: Introduce methods of integration and differentiation. This book contains detailed illustrative material and has been used as a teaching tool for undergraduate students for over six semesters
