3.8.2 Numerical Methods (A-level only)

Card 1 of 21

Repeated calculations in a numerical method produce an [     ].

A

Rounding can accumulate errors and alter the final answer.

B

Repeated calculations in a numerical method produce an approximate solution.

C

The limit satisfies α=g(α)\alpha=g(\alpha)α=g(α), so it is a fixed point.

D

Convergence to a fixed number α\alphaα is written xn→αx_n\to\alphaxn​→α as n→∞n\to\inftyn→∞.
