Lesson 1 - Error and Related Concepts (Ch 1)
Error → Loss of accuracy due to rounding decimals
Types of errors:
• Experimental error → Due to inaccurate data (bad input)
• Truncation error → Due to replacing exact method with approximation
• Round-off error → Caused by physical limit to the number of digits that can be
retained
• Machine error → Due to data representation and manipulation
Lesson 2 – Nonlinear Equations (Ch 2 & 10.2)
Root problem form (RP) → f(x) = 0
Fixed-point problem form (FP) → x = g(x)
Bisection Method:
• Uses RP form
• Requires that chosen interval (a, b) contains the root
• Root is calculated by halving current interval
• Interval containing the root is confirmed by Intermediate Value Theorem ( f(a) . f(b) < 0 )
• Convergence:
o Ensures convergence to root cuz it is bracted by endpoints
• Termination:
o Number of iterations n required to attain a tolerance of e is found by solving
