That's super interesting! My parents were both civil engineering majors, and my dad still works in the field.
Also big thank you for name-dropping Numerical Recipes. I checked it out on LibGen and it turns out to be something I need. I'm taking an embedded systems class where we need to do a bunch of C programming and I was just reading a numerical analysis book (Classical Numerical Analysis by Salgado and Wise; it's more theoretical) the other day, so it's going to be really helpful to see some nontrivial C code in a context I understand. Thanks!
Numerical Recipes is an excellent resource, yeah. Well worth a purchase too, IMO.
