Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computation: International Edition, 1/e

This text is intended for a first course in Numerical Analysis taken by students majoring in mathematics, engineering, computer science, and the sciences. This text emphasizes the mathematical ideas behind the methods and the idea of mixing methods for robustness. The optional use of MATLAB is incorporated throughout the text.

Maple 10, 1/e

Maple 10 is a computer algebra system available from Maplesoft capable of performing mathematical calculations as well as programming, and 2-D and 3-D visualizations. Maple 10 offers full computing support for any activity involving mathematics, including numerical computation, symbolic computation, data visualization and technical authoring of mathematical documents.

Students can enter and solve problems interactively, see what they have entered represented graphically, link their work to Excel spreadsheets, publish to the web in Maple applets and Java applets, and much more.

The Maple 10 Student Edition CD is only £10 when bundled with any Pearson maths title.  If the student were to purchase Maple through Maplesoft, the price would be £80
