Engineers encounter numerical methods first as students and continue to use these methodsthroughout their school and careers. 1It’s common for students to find mastering numerical methods difficult. This may be due in part to theabstract nature of the subject, complexity of the steps involved, and knowledge of when to apply specifictechniques.
