Computational Mathematics
Iterative methods are computational algorithms used to solve mathematical problems by repeatedly refining an approximation to reach a desired level of accuracy. These methods are particularly useful for solving large-scale problems where direct methods may be inefficient or impractical, especially in contexts involving boundary value problems, nonlinear systems, sparse matrices, preconditioning techniques, and numerical methods for inverse problems.
