Preface

The aim of the general approximation methods concerning linear positive operators is to deal with convergence behavior. The accuracy can be ascertained to a desired degree by applying different methods. We are also concerned with the amount of computation required to achieve this accuracy. A direct theorem provides the order of approximation for functions of specified smoothness. The converse of the direct result, that is, the inverse theorem, infers the nature of smoothness of the function from its order of approximation. Asymptotic analysis is a
