The Jacobi method solves a system of linear equations iteratively along its diagonal elements. The iteration procedure terminates when the solution converges. Again, the equation to solve is in the form of Ax=B, where the matrix A can be decomposed into two matrices of the same size such that A=D+R. The matrix D consists of only the diagonal components of A, and the other matrix R consists of the remaining components. Let's take a look at the example of a 4 x 4 A matrix:

The solution is then obtained iteratively, as follows:
As opposed to the Gauss-Siedel method, the value of xn in the Jacobi method is needed during ...
