A Solution Manual for: Numerical Methods in Engineering with Python by Jaan Kiusalaas

The textbook by Kiusalaas is a very nice introduction to numerical analysis using the very popular software python. One of the great aspects of the book is that it is able to accomplish two things for the careful reader: One is the learning of a great deal of very practical and applicable methods in numerical analysis. A second thing, is that by reading and attempting the problems in the book one is also able to gain a strong proficiency in python.

In this manual are the solutions (and a few notes) I made as I worked through each of the chapters from the book. In addition, most of the problems required writing python code which is available via a web site (the address can be found in the book). This manual provides examples on how to call these scripts, the expected outputs, and a resulting discussion for each problem. It should be very helpful for anyone who wants to check their implementations and observe expected output. This manual is designed to greatly shorten learning curve of anyone using this book.
