Abstract
One of the commonest problems of numerical computation is to solve a system of simultaneous linear equations
The coefficients a ij for 1 ≼ i, j ≼ n and the right hand sides b i for 1 ≼ i ≼ n are given; the problem is to find numerical values for the unknowns x1, …, x n which satisfy the n equations.
Our little systems have their day.
Lord Tennyson, In Memoriam
