Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have an algorithm with an absolute error of 0.5 when the true value is 10. Discuss how this affects the algorithm's reliability.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the significance of the absolute error relative to the true value.

Question 2

In your research, you find that a numerical method is producing results that vary widely with minor changes in input data. Evaluate whether the method is well-conditioned or ill-conditioned.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Assess the relationship between input changes and output stability.
