Anyone familiar with the "Matters Computational" book? - mfleming - 02-22-2019 09:05 PM

Many members have posted links and information about mathematics and mathematical books. In my web reading I stumbled across Matters Computational, Ideas, Algorithms, Source Code by Jorg Arndt. The book was formerly titled Algorithms for Programmers and is available for download on the authors web site (which has a nice collection of other links as well). The book and related information can be found at

https://www.jjj.de/fxt/fxtpage.html#fxtbook

The main sections of this 978 page stack of bricks are

I Low level algorithms
II Combinatorial generation
III Fast transforms
IV Fast arithmetic
V Algorithms for finite fields

This seems like a great reference work. Has anyone made use of it?

Thanks you. I'm mathematically-challenged but I downloaded the book for a rainy year.
