Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the availability of a solutions manual for Courant's Volume I, specifically addressing the differences between editions and the resources available for solving exercises. Participants are seeking alternatives to the official solutions provided by Springer.

Discussion Character

  • Debate/contested, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant inquires about the existence of a solutions manual for Courant's Volume I, noting that the Springer version lacks one.
  • Another participant references a website that previously provided answers and hints to selected problems, although it is currently down.
  • A participant mentions that the solutions manual from the original edition is not helpful for the newer version co-authored by Fritz and Courant, as the exercises differ.
  • It is noted that many exercises from Courant's original book appear in the newer edition, but they may be ordered differently, complicating the search for solutions.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree that there are differences between the editions of the book and that the solutions manual for the original edition is not applicable to the newer version. However, there is no consensus on the availability of a suitable solutions manual or resource.

Contextual Notes

Hey, does anybody have this or know where I can get one, since the version by springer does not include a solutions manual at the back of the book?

The http://kr.cs.ait.ac.th/~radok/math/mat6/startdiall.htm (it seems to be down at the moment) has answers/hints to selected problems if that's not in your book already.

yea ill check it out but from the looks of it that is the original edition of the book, the version i got is by fritz and courant.
I checked them out, the two books differ in exercises. Unfortunately that solution manual is not very helpful.

A good amount of the exercises in Courant's original book are in his new book with John Fritz. Some of the exercises are also ordered differently. Hopefully that website comes back up because that was my only online link to that book too.
