In this much-expanded second edition, author Yair Shapira presents new applications and a substantial extension of the original object-oriented framework to make this popular and comprehensive book even easier to understand and use. It not only introduces the C and C++ programming languages, but also shows how to use them in the numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs). New material in this edition includes:* New chapters on 3-D nonlinear applications and image processing applications.* New sections on cryptography applications.* More new sections, many including additional algorithms.
