Description

Book Synopsis

Implement numerical algorithms in Java using NM Dev, an object-oriented and high-performance programming library for mathematics.You'll see how it can help you easily create a solution for your complex engineering problem by quickly putting together classes.

Numerical Methods Using Java covers a wide range of topics, including chapters on linear algebra, root finding, curve fitting, differentiation and integration, solving differential equations, random numbers and simulation, a whole suite of unconstrained and constrained optimization algorithms, statistics, regression and time series analysis. The mathematical concepts behind the algorithms are clearly explained, with plenty of code examples and illustrations to help even beginners get started. 

What You Will Learn
