Many mathematical subroutines for you

This book was written in 1981 and was written for the BASIC programming language. Because of this, most computer users will not be able to use this. However, computer enthusiasts may have some use for this book.The contents include plotting subroutines, complex variables (like spherical coordinate conversion), vector and matrix applications (like determinants and matrix inversion), random number generators (like Fermi distribution and Poisson distribution), and basic series approximations (like Taylor series expansions). In each chapter, Ruckdeschel describes the mathematics involved, then explains how the subroutine is written.If you need to write these kinds of subroutines for your work, this can provide a starting point for you. This was written before the World Wide Web became so popular so some of these you may now find on the Net.
