Could you please elaborate a little on what is contained in this book?
What sorts of "numerics" are covered?  Perhaps a table of contents posted
here would answer my questions most easily..

Thanks,
Phil Calvin

I've had wonderful luck with the IMSL routines for optimization.
I've used their FORTRAN libraries, but I believe they have C libraries
available now.  They are no longer IMSL-- I think they are now part of
Visual Numerics.  Their non-linear optimization routines are just great,
but you need to buy the whole library, and it runs big bucks

I am looking for a book, preferably with source code diskette in C++,
with some optimization routines, specifically I am looking for a C
or C++ implementation for minimum square implementation (leastsq.m)
