First Semester in Numerical Analysis with Julia
-
First Semester in Numerical Analysis with Julia presents the theory and methods, together with the implementation of the algorithms using the Julia programming language (version 1.1.0). The reader is expected to have studied calculus and linear algebra. Some familiarity with a programming language is beneficial, but not required. The programming language Julia will be introduced
in the book. Incorporating coding and computing within the main text was my primary objective in writing this book. The simplicity of Julia allows bypassing the pseudocode, and writing a computer code directly after the description of a method. It also minimizes the distraction the presentation of a computer code might cause to the flow of the main narrative. The Julia codes are written without much concern for efficiency; the priority is to write codes that will mimic the derivations presented in the text., Keywords: Numerical analysis, Julia, Publication Note: This publication was made possible by an Alternative Textbook Grant issued by Florida State University Libraries., Preferred Citation: Ökten, G.

From Growing to Biology
-
Ready to find out how plants are grown and function? Take a fantastic voyage through plants. From Growing to Biology: Plants 1e brings the latest information for understanding of traditional and modern plant growing, form, and production. Topics covered in 30 chapters include concise and up-to-date ‘big picture’ infographics, student learning outcomes (SLOs), key vocabulary, assessment, as well as identification of 120 species, and more. Moreover, author Dr. G. Hacisalihoglu emphasizes on leaning concepts, binding those concepts together with visuals approach to make learning faster and more memorable.From Growing to Biology: Plants 1e is packed full of horticultural information that is ideal for both academia and industry growers. It is basic enough that if you are just getting started learning plants, you will be able to catch up. Always remember that practice makes permanent and keep going to take your learning plant bio to new levels., Plant biology, This open textbook was funded in part by an Alternative Textbook Grant from FSU Libraries. An author bio and feedback survey are available on the book's Manifold project page: https://doi.org/10.33009/fsop_hacisalihoglu0421 .

Introduction to Financial Mathematics
-
Introduction to Financial Mathematics: Concepts and Computational Methods serves as a primer in financial mathematics with a focus on conceptual understanding of models and problem solving. It includes the mathematical background needed for risk management, such as probability theory, optimization, and the like. The goal of the book is to expose the reader to a wide range of basic problems, some of which emphasize analytic ability, some requiring programming techniques and others focusing on statistical data analysis. In addition, it covers some areas which are outside the scope of mainstream financial mathematics textbooks. For example, it presents marginal account setting by the CCP and systemic risk, and a brief overview of the model risk. Inline exercises and examples are included to help students prepare for exams on this book., Keywords: Financial mathematics, Publication Note: This publication was made possible by an Alternative Textbook Grant issued by Florida State University Libraries. The textbook source code is available upon request to afahim@fsu.edu.
