In this chapter, we consider computer methods for solving linear algebra problems. To understand these methods, you should be familiar with the type of number system used by the computer. When data are read into the computer, they are translated into its finite number system. This translation will usually involve some roundoff error. Additional rounding errors will occur when the algebraic operations of the algorithm are carried out. Because of rounding errors, we cannot expect to get the exact solution to the original problem. The best we can hope for is a good approximation to a ...
