This course takes a tour through many algorithms of numerical analysis. We aim to assess alternative methods based on efficiency, to discern well-posed problems from ill-posed ones, and to see these methods in action through computer implementation.

The book gives an in-depth, up-to-date view of practical algorithms for solving large-scale linear systems of equations. The methods described are iterative, i.e., they provide sequences of approximations that will converge to the solution.
