Book Description
Have you ever wondered how you can use your microcomputer to learn something useful whilst still having fun? If you have then you will certainly enjoy this entertaining guide to the fascinating world of mathematics. And you do not need to be an expert in mathematics or computing! Each chapter introduces an important part of mathematics. The basic ideas are explained in a lively and instructive style, and then incorporated into computer games and 'fun' programs. Find out how to make snowflakes and about polar honey bees; discover hidden treasure, and learn what bouncing balls, rockets and bacteria have in common; create amazing patterns on screen. All of the computer programs are written in BASIC, and in such a way that they are readily adaptable to your own microcomputer; conversion notes are provided. The programs have been tested on several different microcomputers and the programs listings have been printed directly from running programs. The book will provide an endless source of ideas, and what you learn will enable you to write your own even more sophisticated programs.

Book Description
Although the computing facilities available to scientists are becoming more powerful, the problems they are addressing are increasingly complex. The mathematical methods for simplifying the computing procedures are therefore as important as ever. Microcomputer Algorithms: Action from Algebra stresses the mathematical basis behind the use of many algorithms of computational mathematics, providing detailed descriptions on how to generate algorithms for a large number of different uses. Covering a wide range of mathematical and physical applications, the book contains the theory of 25 algorithms. The mathematical theory for each algorithm is described in detail prior to discussing the algorithm in full, with complete program listings. The book presents the algorithms in modular form, allowing for easy interpretation, for the adaptation to readers' specific requirements without difficulty, and for use with various microcomputers. Blending mathematics and programming in one volume, this book will be of broad interest to all scientists and engineers, particularly those physicists using microcomputers for scientific problem handling. Students handling numerical data for research projects will also find the book useful.

Book Description
Microcomputer Quantum Mechanics combines the teaching of computing skills with depth of mathematical understanding. This practical text demonstrates how computation can be integrated with theoretical analysis as part of a unified attack on problems in one of the most interesting areas of modern physics. The author discusses the mathematical principles behind the programs and actually creates new methods to facilitate the application of microcomputers in quantum mechanics.
