This updated new edition includes a wealth of additional material. As well as its integration of mathematical theory and numerical algorithm development, it features new chapters on topics such as the calculus of variations, integration, and block relaxation.

With new chapters on asymptotic and numerical methods, as well as an appendix on the finer points of the mathematical theory, this second edition emphasizes mathematical modeling, computational techniques, and examples from the biological sciences

Presenting aspects of numerical analysis applicable to statisticians, this volume enables students to craft their own software and to understand both the advantages and challenges of numerical methods. Topics include numerical stability, accurate approximations, computational complexity and more.
