It begins with \"How Computational Statistics became the backbone of modern data science\" (Ch.1): an overview of the field of Computational Statistics, how it emerged as a separate discipline, and how its own development mirrored that of hardware and software, including a discussion of current active research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second part (Chs. 2 - 15) presents several topics in the supporting field of statistical computing. Emphasis is placed on the need for fast and accurate numerical algorithms, and some of the basic methodologies for transformation, database handling, high-dimensional data and graphics treatment are discussed. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe third part (Chs. 16 - 33) focuses on statistical methodology.
