Ordinary differential equations -- 9. Partial differential equations -- 10. Analyzing data -- 11. Fitting models to data N2 - This book shows how the free and open-source R environment can be used as a powerful and comprehensive platform for the kinds of numerical analysis that are traditionally employed by MATLAB. With R code fully integrated, the book offers brief descriptions of basic approaches and emphasizes detailed worked examples. It covers functions in the base installation of R as well as those in contributed packages, which greatly enhance the numerical analysis capabilities of R ER -
