Linear Algebra and Differential Equations
Iterative methods are techniques used for solving mathematical problems by repeatedly applying a certain algorithm to approximate solutions. They are particularly useful in scenarios where direct methods may be inefficient or impractical, such as in large systems of equations or complex optimization problems. These methods rely on an initial guess and refine that guess through successive approximations until a desired level of accuracy is achieved.
congrats on reading the definition of iterative methods. now let's actually learn it.
