Fortran 77 and Numerical Methods for Engineers;

This text introduces the beginner to FORTRAN. To help the reader develop analysis skills while learning programming, engineering computations are incorporated with sound programming practices. Eight major programming assignments sections, each with a sample and solved model, illustrate the methods of preceding chapters, as well as introduce discussions concerning engineering orientation. This second edition integrates numerous advanced topics in numerical methods as they relate to computational procedures in order to reinforce their application in other courses such as calculus and physics. Topics especially tailored to the beginning user include matrix equations, root of functions, curve-fitting, series expansions, integration and differentiation and differential equations.
