Numerical methods are necessary in science and engineering, because most problems of practical interest are just too difficult to be solved in “closed form”. While many important problems, such as the motion of a mass on a spring etc., have “exact” solutions in terms of known functions such as sin or cos, these are nevertheless “simple” problems. Making these problems just a little...
