Publisher's Synopsis
This book, Introduction to C Programming: As a Mathematical Tool, is tailored for undergraduate students of B.Sc. Semester IV Maths Group and Mathematics at the University of Rajasthan, Jaipur, Raj Rishi Bhartrihari Matsya University, Alwar, and R R Government College, Alwar. It aligns with the syllabus [UG0809-MAT-64P-255], providing a structured and practical approach to using C programming for solving mathematical problems.
The book introduces foundational programming concepts such as algorithms, flowcharts, and basic C syntax, including variables, expressions, loops, arrays, and functions. It emphasizes practical applications, making complex mathematical computations approachable through programming.\\
The content is divided into three sections: \\
Group A: Focuses on basic programming tasks like Fibonacci sequences, factorials, prime number analysis, GCD/LCM, and statistical calculations.\\
Group B: Covers numerical integration techniques such as the Trapezoidal rule, Simpson's rules, and difference tables.\\
Group C: Introduces advanced computational methods, including solving algebraic and transcendental equations with Bisection, Regula-falsi, and Newton-Raphson methods, and solving initial value problems with Euler's and Runge-Kutta methods.
Designed for students, educators, and self-learners, this book bridges the gap between theoretical mathematics and computational techniques. It equips readers with the programming skills and problem-solving mindset necessary to excel academically and professionally. With examples, exercises, and real-world applications, it serves as a comprehensive resource for mastering C programming as a mathematical tool.
