Business Calculus Demystified clarifies the concepts and processes of calculus and demonstrates their applications to the workplace. Best-selling math author Rhonda Huettenmueller uses the same combination of winning step-by-step teaching techniques and real-world business and...
"Michael Scott's book could have been entitled: Why Programming Languages Work. It takes a fresh look at programming languages by bringing together ideas and techniques usually covered in disparate language design, compiler, computer architecture, and operating system courses. Its comprehensive and integrated presentation of language...
Larson's market-leading text, PRECALCULUS is known for delivering sound, consistently structured explanations and exercises of mathematical concepts to expertly prepare students for the study of calculus. With the ninth edition, the author continues to revolutionize the way students learn material by incorporating more real-world...
When it comes to understanding one of your most intimidating courses--calculus--even good students can be confused. Intended primarily for the non-engineering calculus student (though the more serious calculus student will also benefit), Calculus for the Utterly Confused is your ticket to success. Calculus concepts are explained and applied...
This updated third edition illustrates the mathematical concepts that a game developer needs to develop 3D computer graphics and game engines at the professional level. It starts at a fairly basic level in areas such as vector geometry and linear algebra, and then progresses to more advanced topics in 3D programming such as illumination and...
This text is an introduction to the basic principles of electrical engineering. It is the outgrowth of
lecture notes prepared by this author while teaching for the electrical engineering and computer
engineering departments at San José State University, DeAnza college, and the College of San Mateo,...
From differentiation to integration — solve problems with ease
Got a grasp on the terms and concepts you need to know, but get lost halfway through a problem or, worse yet, not know where to begin? Have no fear! This hands-on guide focuses on helping you solve the many types of calculus problems you encounter in a...
Definition of vectors and discussion of algebraic operations on vectors leads to concept of tensor and algebraic operations on tensors. Also, systematic study of the differential and integral calculus of vector and tensor functions of space and time, more. Concise, eminently readable text. Worked out problems, solutions.
This book is intended to have three roles and to serve three associated audiences: an
introductory text on Bayesian inference star ting from first principles, a graduate text on
effective current approaches to Bayesian modeling and computation in statistics and
related fields, and a handbook of Bayesian meth ods in applied...
The Barnett/Ziegler/Byleen/Sobecki College Algebra series is designed to give students a solid grounding in pre-calculus topics in a user-friendly manner. The series emphasizes computational skills, ideas, and problem solving rather than theory. Explore/Discuss boxes integrated throughout each text encourage students to think critically about...
Focusing on both private- and public-key cryptographic algorithms, this book describes algorithmic methods with cryptographically relevant examples. After introducing modern cryptography and elementary number theory and algebra, it covers linear algebra, sieving, brute force, algorithms based on the birthday paradox,...
