商品描述

This book offers a new approach to introductory scientific computing. It aims to make students comfortable using computers to do science, to provide them with the computational tools and knowledge they need throughout their college careers and into their professional careers, and to show how all the pieces can work together. Rubin Landau introduces the requisite mathematics and computer science in the course of realistic problems, from energy use to the building of skyscrapers to projectile motion with drag. He is attentive to how each discipline uses its own language to describe the same concepts and how computations are concrete instances of the abstract.

Landau covers the basics of computation, numerical analysis, and programming from a computational science perspective. The first part of the printed book uses the problem-solving environment Maple as its context, with the same material covered on the accompanying CD as both Maple and Mathematica programs; the second part uses the compiled language Java, with equivalent materials in Fortran90 on the CD; and the final part presents an introduction to LaTeX replete with sample files.

Providing the essentials of computing, with practical examples, A First Course in Scientific Computing adheres to the principle that science and engineering students learn computation best while sitting in front of a computer, book in hand, in trial-and-error mode. Not only is it an invaluable learning text and an essential reference for students of mathematics, engineering, physics, and other sciences, but it is also a consummate model for future textbooks in computational science and engineering courses.

  • A broad spectrum of computing tools and examples that can be used throughout an academic career
  • Practical computing aimed at solving realistic problems
  • Both symbolic and numerical computations
  • A multidisciplinary approach: science + math + computer science
  • Maple and Java in the book itself; Mathematica, Fortran90, Maple and Java on the accompanying CD in an interactive workbook format

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書提供了一種新的入門科學計算方法。它旨在讓學生能夠自信地使用電腦進行科學研究,為他們提供在大學及職業生涯中所需的計算工具和知識,並展示所有這些要素如何協同工作。Rubin Landau 在現實問題的過程中介紹了所需的數學和計算機科學,這些問題包括能源使用、摩天大樓的建造以及帶阻力的拋體運動。他關注每個學科如何使用自己的語言來描述相同的概念,以及計算如何是抽象的具體實例。

Landau 從計算科學的角度涵蓋了計算、數值分析和編程的基本知識。印刷書的第一部分使用問題解決環境 Maple 作為背景,隨附的 CD 中包含相同的材料,涵蓋 Maple 和 Mathematica 程式;第二部分使用編譯語言 Java,CD 中有 Fortran90 的等效材料;最後一部分介紹了 LaTeX,並附有範例檔案。

《A First Course in Scientific Computing》提供了計算的基本要素,並以實際範例為基礎,遵循科學和工程學生在電腦前手握書本、以試錯模式學習計算的最佳原則。這不僅是一本對數學、工程、物理及其他科學學生來說無價的學習文本和必備參考書,還是未來計算科學和工程課程教科書的完美範本。
