“…That mechanical engineer would probably do better to pick up Oliveira and Stewart’s Writing Scientific Software: A Guide to Good Style, whose subtitle could equally well have been “Things Computational Scientists Ought to Know”. The chapter titles are a good summary of its contents: basics of computer organization, software design, data structures, design for testing and debugging, global vs. local optimization, memory bugs and leaks, Unix tools, and so on. The writing is clear (though more diagrams wouldn’t have done any harm), and the case studies at the end are well thought out. The authors clearly know their intended audience well.”
Greg Wilson, Dr. Dobb’s JournalThe core of scientific computing is designing, writing, testing, debugging and modifying numerical software for application to a vast range of areas: from graphics, meteorology and chemistry to engineering, biology and finance. Scientists, engineers and computer scientists need to write good code, for speed, clarity, flexibility and ease of re-use. Oliveira and Stewart’s style guide for numerical software points out good practices to follow, and pitfalls to avoid. By following their advice, readers will learn how to write efficient software, and how to test it for bugs, accuracy and performance. Techniques are explained with a variety of programming languages, and illustrated with two extensive design examples, one in Fortran 90 and one in C++: other examples in C, C++, Fortran 90 and Java are scattered throughout the book. This manual of scientific computing style will be an essential addition to the bookshelf and lab of everyone who writes numerical software.
