Publisher's Synopsis
The object of this book is to enable readers to understand, use and develop, classical computational methods for their own applications, with emphasis on utilizing microcomputers which are standard equipment in universities and industrial chemical laboratories. Topics covered include vector/matrix calculations, least squares data fitting, interpolation and numerical solutions of differential equations. Numerical examples connected with chemistry are included and results are derived rather than quoted, in the belief that some understanding of a numerical example is essential before it can be modified beyond that required for A-level physics courses. Computer listings in BASIC are included.
