Computer scientists and mathematicians alike, will be compelled to check out this fantastic introduction to computational mathematics, also known as numerical analysis, by De Sterck and Ullrich, made publicly available by University of California, Davis. Some would describe numerical analysis as ''the development of algorithms which solve mathematical problems computationally''. Of course, these are closer to class notes than a proper text, but still, this 118 pages primer covers error propagation, root finding, interpolation, integration, discrete Fourier methods, and a short chapter on numerical linear algebra. This text goes well with ''Scientific Computing: An Introductory Survey''. For those who want more on numerical linear algebra can check out ''Applied Numerical Linear Algebra'' by Demmel. You will have to find this resource manually, as i don't normally share direct link to university websites (they sometimes dont want to deal with the traffic, i believe, therefore, the cut links from time to time!).
