{PDF} Numerical Methods in Engineering with Python Jaan Kiusalaas

Being familiar with python is necessary for this volume, but the concepts used are simple. The description of the numerical methods is complete, but a comparison of methods is not always present leaving an inexperienced analyst to wonder which method is the best for a given situation. Python is also not the most efficient language for numerical computation, but is a good linker and with cython it can become a viable option. Overall I recommend this book for learning numerical methods as you will not be tangled in the programming language, but learning numerical methods.
