Basic Programs for Chemical Engineers

The microcomputer has put a vast amount of computational power in the hands of the practicing chemical engineer. However, a microcomputer is of little use unless there are programs available to solve chemical engineer­ ing problems; In this book, I have put together a collection of BASIC pro­ grams...
