Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Applied Numerical Methods for Engineers

Book Review: Good text for an undergrad class
Summary: 4 Stars

The theme is one of a pragmatic approach to using statistics in an engineering context. Many algorithms are not presented as actual code in some computer language, but as pseudocode. This may be of use to an instructor wondering whether to use this book or not. The pseudocode readily lends itself to assignment problems where the student has to implement it in some actual source code. This has a moderate level of difficulty, and would be reasonable problems to assign. Each should not take more than a few hours (3?), assuming that the student is already competent in a computer language.
