Welcome to computationalmathematics.org, an educational website providing resources for students and researches in the computational sciences. Follow the links above for information on specific topics.

Computational mathematics is the branch of mathematics which is concerned primarily with ways in which to compute results to various problems by applying the theory of numerical analysis. In this manner, approximate numerical solutions are achieved as opposed to the analytic solution methods of traditonal applied mathematics. The subject is the backbone of all computational science and engineering, which in recent decades has become vital to cutting edge research in almost every scientific field. As high speed computers provide ever increasing simulation capabilities, the importance of this field has never been greater.
