Review text

This book is designed for students of engineering, who after having acquired the fundamentals of calculus need to become acquainted with some topics of numerical and applied analysis. The contents of the eight short chapters are as follows: 1. Spline interpolation; 2. Differential equations and power series, Bessel differential equation, Bessel functions; 3. Numerical and graphical methods for the solution of differential equations, Phase plane, Stability; 4. Numerical integration; 5. Partial differential equations; 6. Discrete Fourier transform; 7. The \(z\)-transform; 8. Linear optimization. The presentation of the material is elementary, very clear and supported by properly chosen examples of good didactic value. Answers to the exercises added to each chapter are given at the end of the book.
