Hi,
I want to know if anyone out there is aware of a book that teach C/C++ in a scientific point of view...any suggestions ?
Thanks !

Science is huge, my friend.
Do you mean a point of view as a computer scientist, mathematician, biologist, physicist or another ramification?
Wish I could prove I love you, but does that mean I have to walk on water?
When we are older you'll understand it's enough when I say so, and maybe some things are that simple.
for physics mainly .
I guess your best bet would be to google "computational physics" (I did a quick search and found many examples applied to C, others are language independent; they will not teach you the language itself, though)
You may also like to check the GSL (GNU Scientific Library). http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/
Is that what you're looking for?

I remember in the engineering library from uni that there were one or two very comprehensive c++ books on algorithms for practical scientific problems. So certainly there are books out there, though unfortunately I can't find the title/ author of the book I have in mind (though I can point you to the book shelve it sits on )
Edit: I should also mention that using C++ looked live a pain in the *donkey*, maybe python could be used instead?

Don't look for books in the current language you're using, the best books are which study the algorithms without relating it with a single language; most likely presented in pseudo code. Don't focus on the language, focus on the algorithms.

Hi everyone,
I've made my duties
The following are books on C/C++ for engineers/scientists in mind. They tend to focus more on scientific task for learning the language.
Introducing C++ for Scientists, Engineers and Mathematicians
Derek Capper
A First Course in Computational Physics and Object-Oriented Programming with C++ (Hardcover)
David Yevick
Scientific and Engineering C++: An Introduction with Advanced Techniques and Examples (Paperback)
John J. Barton
C++ and Object-oriented Numeric Computing for Scientists and Engineers (Hardcover)
Daoqi Yang
C++ Toolkit for Engineers and Scientists (Paperback)
James T. Smith
C Programming: The Essentials for Engineers and Scientists (Undergraduate Texts in Computer Science) (Hardcover)
David R. Brooks
Introduction to C++ for Engineers and Scientists (Prentice Hall Modular Series for Engineering) (Paperback)
D. M. Etter
Unfortunately, i don't have found a book on physics/python yet...still looking .
Thanks for all the reply
