{"product_id":"elementary-functions-algorithms-and-implementation-9780817639907","title":"Elementary Functions:: Algorithms and Implementation","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book gives the concepts and background necessary to understand and build algorithms for computing elementary functions  presenting and structuring the algorithms (hardware- oriented as well as software-oriented)  and discusses issues related to the accurate floating-point implementation. The purpose is not to give \"cookbook recipes\" that allow one to implement some given function  but to provide the reader with the knowledge that is necessary to build  or adapt  algorithms to their specific computing environment. Topics and Features:  background material reviewed in Chapter 2  Computer Arithmetic  polynomial and rational approximations  table based methods  shift-and-add algorithms thoroughly covered in Part Two  CORDIC algorithm  range reduction and accuracy covered in Part Three  Web site for the book containing additional resources and selected code The book provides an up-to-date presentation of the information needed to understand and accurately use mathematical functions and algorithms in computational work and design. Graduates  professionals and researchers in scientific computing  software engineering  and computer engineering will find the book a useful reference and resource.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67921160929333,"sku":"ByrdShop_081763990X","price":345.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780817639907.jpg?v=1794066094","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/elementary-functions-algorithms-and-implementation-9780817639907","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
