DESCRIPTION:
Beebe is a Research Professor and Software Specialist in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Utah, USA. Dr. He has written extensive software projects in numerous programming-language, operating-system, and hardware environments. His bibliographic database work has exposed him to a wide range of journals on current research. . Nelson H.F. He has a diverse background in chemistry, physics, mathematics, computer science, systems management, and typography, havi
From the Back CoverAll major computer programming languagesas well as the disciplines of science and engineering more broadlyrequire computation of elementary and special functions of mathematics. The MathCW Software Library emphasizes portability, precisely because the code needs to capable of use on a wide variety of platforms.This highly comprehensive handbook provides a substantial advance in such computation, extending the function coverage of major programming languages well beyond their international standards, including full supp
In addition, professional numerical analysts and others will find the handbook of real interest and utility because it builds on research by the mathematical software community over the last four decades.. It extends support to a future 256-bit, floating-point format offering 70 decimal digits of precision.Select Topics and Features: references an exceptionally useful, author-maintained MathCW website, containing source code for the book’s software, compiled libraries for numerous systems, pre-built C compilers, and other related materials; offers a unique approach to covering mathematical-function computation using decimal arithmetic; provides extremely versatile appendices for interfaces to numerous other languages: Ada, C#, C++, Fortran, Java, and Pascal; presupposes only basic familiarity with computer programming in a common language, as well as early level algebra; supplies a library that readily adapts for existing scripting languages, with minimal effort; supports both binary and decimal arithmetic
