  14. Probably the book I recommend the most: "Numerical Recipes in Pascal"
  15. (or "in C", or "in Fortran"), by Press, Flannery, Teukolsky, and
  16. Vetterling, published by Cambridge University Press. It runs a little
  17. over $40 (give or take), and is well worth every penny- no lab should
  18. be without one! Oh yeah, try to get the new 2nd edition (which I have
  19. only seen for C and Fortran- no Pascal this time, darn!), it has
  20. even more stuff in it.
