Numerical Computer Methods, Part D

Hosszú leírás:

The aim of Numerical Computer Methods, Part D is to brief researchers of the importance of data analysis in enzymology, and of the modern methods that have developed concomitantly with computer hardware. It is also to validate researchers' computer programs with real and synthetic data to ascertain that the results produced are what they expected.
