Theoretical Numerical Analysis and the numerical solution ofThis concise text introduces numerical analysis as a practical, problem solving discipline. The three part presentation begins with the fundamentals of functional analysis and approximation theory. Part II outlines the major results of theoretical numerical analysis, reviewing product integration, approximate expansion methods, the minimization of functions, and related topics. Part III considers specific subjects that illustrate the power and
