Errors Which We Encounter
In the preceding chapter, numerical analysis was described as the study
and implementation of simplified models. The outcome of this simplified
analysis is influenced by several sources which can introduce error into
the problem. Errors may be introduced by the model, by measurements, by
computational arithmetic, or by previous calculations.
