CHAPTER 04.06: GAUSSIAN ELIMINATION: Gaussian Elimination With
Partial Pivoting: Theory I'm going to show you how to do Gauss
elimination with partial pivoting, we're going to talk about the
theory behind Gauss elimination with partial pivoting, and one
of the which I would suggest to you strongly is that if you have
not looked at the Naive Gaussian method theory and example, that
you do that before you start understanding what Gauss
elimination with partial pivoting is. The reason why that is so
is because there's a small difference between Gauss elimination
with partial pivoting and Naive Gaussian method, and in order to
be able to understand what that difference is, and also because
we'll be skipping steps in the Gauss elimination with partial
pivoting, because it's very similar to Naive Gaussian method
except for one step, you do need to understand that first. Now,
the reason why we talk Gauss elimination with partial pivoting
is because there are certain pitfalls of the Gauss elimination.
One is that the
