Problem 356
Apart from mistakes in entering or reading data, the two main sources of error in numerical analysis are truncation error and rounding error. The cumulative effect of such errors can make the final result suspect. Give illustrations of truncation and rounding errors.
Problem 362
Use the Crout method to solve the system $$ \begin{aligned} 2 \mathrm{x}_{1}-\mathrm{x}_{2} &=6 \\ -\mathrm{x}_{1}+3 \mathrm{x}_{2}-2 \mathrm{x}_{3} &=1 \\ -2 \mathrm{x}_{2}+4 \mathrm{x}_{3}-3 \mathrm{x}_{4} &=-2 \\ -3 \mathrm{x}_{3}+5 \mathrm{x}_{4} &=1 \end{aligned} $$
Problem 369
Use the Gauss-Seidel method to solve the following linear system: $$ \begin{aligned} &10 \mathrm{x}_{1}+\mathrm{x}_{2}+\mathrm{x}_{3}=15 \\ &\mathrm{x}_{1}+10 \mathrm{x}_{2}+\mathrm{x}_{3}=24 \\ &\mathrm{x}_{1}+\mathrm{x}_{2}+10 \mathrm{x}_{3}=33 \end{aligned} $$
