Opis

The first book available on C++ programming that is written specifically for a mathematical audience, C++ for Mathematicians omits the language’s more obscure features in favor of the aspects of greatest utility for mathematical work. Emphasizing the essential role of practice as part of the learning process, the book is ideally desig

Recenzje

“For a mathematician like myself, Scheinerman’s new book is ideal. It concentrates on the portion of C++ that will be most useful to a mathematician. While developing the necessary tools and syntax of C++, the book presents example programs relevant to interesting and somewhat sophisticated mathematical problems. The reader can proceed as far as he/she wants. Even just reading the first few chapters of the book and writing some programs using the constructs introduced, there is sufficient [material] for many purposes within undergraduate mathematics … The strength of this book is the intermingling of interesting mathematics with the ideas and syntax of the C++ language. … The writing is very fluent and does not bog down in endless detail as so many programming books do … In summary, I recommend this book highly to frustrated mathematicians wishing to learn C++ programming. You will really enjoy the well-chosen examples and the light touch in the exposition.”
—Jeffrey Nunemacher, MAA Reviews
