Books on computation in the marketplace tend to discuss the topics within specific fields. Many computational algorithms, however, share common roots. Great advantages emerge if numerical methodologies break the boundaries and find their uses across disciplines. Interdisciplinary Computing In Java Programming Language introduces readers of different backgrounds to the beauty of the selected algorithms. Serious quantitative researchers, writing customized codes for computation, enjoy cracking source codes as opposed to the black-box approach.
