Buch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book explores the most significant computational methods and thehistory of their development. It begins with the earliest mathematical / numerical achievements made by the Babylonians and theGreeks, followed by the period beginning in the 16th century. Forseveral centuries the main scientific challenge concerned the mechanics of planetary dynamics, and the book describes the basic numerical methods of that time. In turn, at the end of the Second World War scientific computing took a giantstep forward with the advent of electronic computers, whichgreatly accelerated the development of numericalmethods. As a result, scientific computing became established as a third scientificmethod in addition to the two traditional branches: theory andexperimentation. The book traces numerical methods' journey back to their origins andto the people who invented them, while also briefly examining the development of electronic computers over the years.Featuring 163 references and more than 100figures, many of them portraits or photos of key historical figures, the book provides a unique historical perspective on the generalfield of scientific computing - making it a valuable resource for all students and professionals interested in the history of numerical analysis and computing, and for a broader readership alike. 276 pp. Englisch.
