First printing, pg. 313, example 17.3: shouldn't the function be f(x,z)=x^2 + 6*exp(-x^2)? The value at x=0 is 6.

Yes of course if only you think that little error is worth it 😊 my name is Mindaugas Kepalas and I am a phd student at Vilnius University in Lithuania. I would like to use the opportunity to thank you for the great book! It is wonderfully written and I enjoy reading it so much!
