Numerical Analysis I
Division is a mathematical operation that involves splitting a quantity into equal parts or determining how many times one number is contained within another. In the context of floating-point arithmetic, division can lead to significant challenges due to precision errors and rounding issues, particularly when dealing with very small or very large numbers. Understanding how division operates with floating-point numbers is essential for ensuring accurate computations in numerical analysis.
