Practical Numerical Analysis Using Microsoft Excel

This text presents numerical analysis in an easy and lucid manner requiring no prior knowledge of computer programming or intricacies of mathematics using MS-EXCEL 2000 through built in functions of MS-Excel depicting with ease various analysis. The analysis used can also be done using earlier versions of MS-Excel. The majority of numerical analysis needs fall into the curve fitting, interpolation, solutions of equations, integration methods. For these Excel's features provide a very easy and inexpensive way to get the job done.

Here we consider more rigorous and fundamental techniques of interpolation
and their applications through Excel. Thus interpolation is important as a means
to approximate functions known only at a finite set of points. It appears that
