520 _aAn Introduction to Numerical Analysis by Endre Süli and D. F. Mayers is a well-regarded textbook that blends rigorous mathematical foundations with practical algorithmic insights, making it an excellent resource for undergraduate mathematics students, particularly in their second year. Based on an Oxford University course, the book comprehensively covers key topics such as iterative methods for solving equations, linear systems, eigenvalue problems, interpolation, approximation, numerical integration, and both initial and boundary value problems for ordinary differential equations, including an introduction to the finite element method. It emphasizes the critical qualities of numerical algorithms, stability, accuracy, reliability, and efficiency, while not merely presenting solution methods, but also analyzing their strengths, limitations, and performance. Its clarity, structured progression, and depth make it both accessible for learners and reliable as a reference for further study.
