Programming for chemical engineers using C, C++, and MATLAB. (CD-ROM included).9781934015094Programming for chemical engineers using C, C++, and MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory) A programming language for technical computing from The MathWorks, Natick, MA (www.mathworks.com). Used for a wide variety of scientific and engineering calculations, especially for automatic control and signal processing, MATLAB runs on Windows, Mac and . (CD-ROM CD-ROM: see compact disc. CD-ROM in full compact disc read-only memory Type of computer storage medium that is read optically (e.g., by a laser). included) Kapuno, Raul Raymond A. Infinity infinity, in mathematics, that which is not finite. A sequence of numbers, a1, a2, a3, … , is said to "approach infinity" if the numbers eventually become arbitrarily large, i.e. Science Press 2008 449 pages $69.95 Hardcover TP184 With a wide range of examples direct from industry and complete program listings that can be run immediately by copying into a text editors, this emphasizes the practical but also gives readers a solid foundations in underlying theoretical concepts. Kapuno (chemical engineering and computer programming, Cebu Institute of Technology, the Philippines) carefully guides readers through numerical methods, testing the algorithm through manual calculation, writing and debugging (programming) debugging - The process of attempting to determine the cause of the symptoms of malfunctions in a program or other system. These symptoms may be detected during testing or use by real users. the algorithm, and validating the result through statistical analysis. He begins by reviewing C programming and numerical computation using C, physical properties in prediction and approximation approximation /ap·prox·i·ma·tion/ (ah-prok?si-ma´shun) 1. the act or process of bringing into proximity or apposition. 2. a numerical value of limited accuracy. , and applications using C, then provides an overview of C++ and MATLAB, moving on to MATLAB's functions for numerical computation and application, closing with information on interfacing MATLAB with C. This is designed for chemical engineering courses and also as a professional reference. ([c]20082005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) |
