Numerical Analysis is a college text for students of mathematical sciences. The book discusses the principles of numerical analysis, helping students understand how to apply them towards the subject of scientific computing. It teaches students about 1-variable equations, interpolation, polynomial approximation, numerical differentiation, integration and initial value problems in ODEs. The book also explains approximation, eigenvalues, boundary value problems and partial differential equations. It is a valuable resource for all students of mathematics and computational analysis.
