Technical Publications Numerical Methods & Optimization: Techniques and applications

Numerical method is a mathematical tool designed to solve numerical problems. The implementation of a numerical method with an appropriate convergence check in a programming language is called a numerical algorithm. Numerical analysis is the study of algorithms that use numerical approximation for the problems of mathematical analysis. Numerical analysis naturally finds application in all fields of engineering and the physical sciences. Numerical methods are used to approach the solution of the problem and the use of computer improves the accuracy of the solution and working speed. Optimization is the process of finding the conditions that give the maximum or minimum value of a function. For optimization purpose, Linear Programming technique helps the management in decision making process. This technique is used in almost every functional area of business. This book include flowcharts and programs for various Numerical MethodNumerical method is a mathematical tool designed to solve numerical problems.
