This book/disk offers scientists, engineers, statisticians and programmers a toolbox of numerical routines in Visual Basic. The routines support number-crunching applications that run in Windows. Each chapter briefly describes the numerical analysis algorithms covered in the chapter; discusses the implementation of the related Visual Basic code; presents the code for the individual routines, with comments outlining the purpose, the role of the parameters, error handling and other features; supplies brief test programs; and includes text boxes and icons to highlight tips, tricks and warnings, where appropriate. The disk features all the mathematical routines explained in the book.

1.0 out of 5 stars
Can there be a 0 star rating?,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mathematical Algorithms in Visual Basic for Scientists & Engineers (Programming Tools for Scientists & Engineers) (Paperback)
I bought this book because it includes a source disk and I did'nt want to reinvent the wheel in BASIC. What a drag to debug this code to get the calculations correct. It would have been faster for me to write it up from scratch! There are no meaningful comments in the code nor any clue in the text. A complete waste of time and money.

This a book for Basic not Visual Basic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mathematical Algorithms in Visual Basic for Scientists & Engineers (Programming Tools for Scientists & Engineers) (Paperback)
The title indicates the book uses Visual Basic. The back covers says programs will also run in Qbasic. This was a great programming language, but this book fails to use any of the modern programming features of Visual Basic. A real disappointment.

Mathematical Algorithms in Visual Basic,
By John Havener (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mathematical Algorithms in Visual Basic for Scientists & Engineers (Programming Tools for Scientists & Engineers) (Paperback)
Exactly the algorithms I need and wanted. Unfortunately, the VB forms were shipped in binary form and can not be used with VB 6, which is what I have. What a bummer to have the code, but be unable to use it.
