BOOKS*
V.P. Demidovich and I.A. Maron, Osnovy vychislitel'noi matematiki (Essentials of Computational Mathematics). Gostekhizdat, Moscow, 1960, 636 pp. 1 rouble, 31 kopecks. lhis book discusses contemporary methods of computational mathematics based on a general technical college course in higher mathematics. The main part of the book consists of a textbook course on approximations for students and research students in technical colleges. It explains operations on approximate numbers, the evaluation of functions using series and iteration processes, the approximate and numerical solution of al,:ei-iraic and transcendental equations, computational methods of linear algebra, interpolation, numerical differentiation and integration of functions, and the Monte Carlo method. Error estimates are given, as well as the proofs of convergence theorems and numerical examples with detailed solutions. There is no material on empirical formulae, square approximations to functions, the approximate solution of differential equations, progranvning or techniques for the solution of problems on computers. D.D. MacCracken, Prograauningfor Digital Computers. Transl. from the 1960, 306 pp., ill., 1 rouble 38 English. Izd-vo. in. lit., hbcow, kopecks. This book is a prograavningmanual. Using a hypothetical computer TIDAC (typical digital automatic computer) the author demonstrates general prograazningmethods. He discusses the essentials of coding, the binary and decimal number systems, sub-routines, the use of floating point numbers, the intermediate storing of programnes and automatic programming. Mathematical Programming. Methods for the N. Reinfeld and II. Vogel’, Solution of Production and Transport Problems. Transl. from the English, Izd-vo in. lit., Moscow, 1960, 302 pp., 1 rouble 24 kopecks. Ibis book is concerned with linear prograavaingand may be used as a
