Approximations for digital computers

This monograph deals with the subject of best approximation in the sense of Chebyshev as applied to the problem of making univariate functional data available to the high-speed digital computing machine. Part I of this book serves as an introduction to the collection of approximations in Part II. Part II contains the "Approximations for digital computers," formerly issued as a cumulative publication of loose sheets and made available to numerical analysts upon requests.
