About this document

Error Analysis in Numerical Computing by Clary Fray is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses various sources of error that occur when performing calculations using computers and numerical methods. It describes round-off error that occurs due to limitations in how real numbers can be represented using binary systems in computers. It also discusses concepts like truncation error that occurs when approximations are used instead of exact mathematical procedures, and issues like loss of significance that can happen during subtraction of nearly equal numbers. Examples are provided
