[For part 1: Foundations of computer calculation. Numerical differentiation and integration, Studii na BIAP (1996) see Zbl 0851.65001)]. This volume treats the most important numerical linear algebra problems. First, the authors consider the basic tools in this area, i. e. elementary orthogonal transforms (Givens and Householder rotations), orthogonal factorizations (QR, SVD, and Schur factorization), as well as LU factorization via Gaussian elimination. Then the following problems are studied numerically: rank revealing, linear systems solution, least squares, eigenproblems. The sensitivity of these problems to perturbations in the inputs is studied, and roundoff error analysis is obtained. This is important for computer implementations. The authors have included a lot of examples, problems, and some FORTRAN codes (namely, some BLAS routines, QR and LU factorizations, condition number estimation, linear system solution, least squares solution). The book can be used by those working in the field of scientific computing and numerical linear algebra. It is also recommended to students in applied mathematics, computer science, engineering, and economics.
