DESCRIPTION:
Must have bookfor those who really needs it Must have bookfor those who needs it :-)Note that it comes with both 3.5" and 5.25" diskettes.Nowadays desktops do not feature 3.5" drives so you'll need buy (or borrow) USB version of this drive to get easy access to the source code.. "A Wide Range of Functions" according to physics student. I have used programs from this book for theta functions and for spheroidal wavefunctions, or rather for the corresponding eigenvalues. For the theta functions I could not find equivalent programs elsewhere. A program for the spheroidal wavefunctions from another recipe book returned erroneous values for certain parameter sets. Baker's code, on the other hand, appeared to have been carefully checked, and functioned correctly (as far as I could determine) for a. A bazillion functions but poorly written A Customer This book has an enormous number of mathematical functions implemented. Unfortunately, the quality of the code is poor. However, if you buy a copy of A&S, you can use the code as a starting point and it would be faster than writing it from scratch. If you can find the routines you need in the Cephes collection at netlib, I would strongly encourage you to use those instead. On the other hand, there are many routines in this book that I have not seen implementa
Includes a separate 3 1/2" disk.. C source code, algorithms and applications for a wide range of valuable scientific and engineering mathematical functions. Each function is discussed in detail with algorithms, applications, and key referneces
