1 MTH303 Section 1.3: Error Analysis R.Touma These lecture slides are not enough to understand the topics of the course; they could be used along with the textbook
2 The numerical solution of a mathematical problem is an approximation of the analytical exact solution. The precision or the accuracy of the numerical solution can be diminished in several ways. It is important to understand and... Definition Let ˆp denote an approximation top. The absolute error ise p = p ˆp, and the relative error isr p = p ˆp p provided that p 0. Example Let ˆx = 3.14 denote an approximation to x = The absolute error is: The relative error is: E x = x ˆx = = R x = x ˆx x = = In this case there is not too much difference between E x and R x, and either could be used to determine the accuracy of ˆx.
3 Let y = 1,000,000 andŷ = 999,996. The absolute error is: The relative error is: R y = E y = y ŷ = 1,000, ,996 = 4 y ŷ y = 1,000, ,996 1, 000, 000 = In this case the error E y is large while the relative error R y is small; ŷ would probably be considered a good approximation toy. Let z = and ẑ = The absolute error is: E z = z ẑ = = The relative error is: R z = z ẑ z = = 0.25
4 z is of magnitude of The error E z is the smallest of all three cases but the relative error R z is the largest (about 25%) and thusẑ is not a good approximation toz. Definition The number ˆp is said to approximate p todsignificant digits if d is the largest nonnegative integer for which p ˆp p < 101 d 2 Example Determine the number of significant digits for the approximations ˆx,ŷ, and ẑ. (a) ˆx = 3.14 and x = , then x ˆx / x = < = We set 1 d = 2 or d = 3. Therefore ˆx approximates x to three significant digits. (b) If y = 1,000,000 and ŷ = 999,996, then y ŷ / y = < = ; We set1 d = 5, thusd = 6. Therefore ŷ approximatesy to six significant digits.
5 (c) If z = andẑ = , then z ẑ / z = 0.25 < We set 1 d = 0 ord = 1. Therefore ẑ approximates z to one significant digit. Truncation Error The truncation error is the error introduced when a complicated mathematical expression is replaced with a more elementary formula. Usually complicated functions are replaced with a truncated Taylor series. For example, the infinite Taylor series e x2 = 1+x 2 + x4 2! + x3 3! + x8 4! + x10 5! + + x2n n! + might be replaced with just the first 5 terms 1+x 2 + x4 2! + x6 3! + x8 4!. This is useful when approximating an integral numerically. Example Given that 1/2 0 e x2 dx = = p. Determine the accuracy of the approximation obtained by replacing the the integrand
6 f(x) = e x2 with the truncated Taylor series P 8 (x) = 1+x 2 + x4 2! + x6 3! + x8 4!. Integrating term by term, we obtain: ) (1+x 2 + x4 2! + x3 3! + x8 dx = 4! Now we compute p ˆp / p, we obtain: ] x= 1 [x+ x3 3 + x5 5(2!) + x7 7(3!) + x9 2 9(4!) x= , 592 = = = ˆp. p ˆp / p = < 10 5 /2 Thus1 d = 5, sod = 6, and ˆp approximates thepto six significant digits.
7 Round-off Error As we previously saw, usually, computers don t store the exact value of a given mathematical quantity, but instead, an approximation is being stored. This representation of real numbers is limited to the fixed precision of the mantissa. This is called the round-off error. For example when the number 1/10 = two is stored in the computer, its binary representation must be truncated; the actual number stored may undergo chopping or rounding of the last digit. Chopping Off versus Rounding Off Let p denote any real number expressed in normalized decimal form: p = ±0.d 1 d 2 d 3 d k d k+1 10 n where 1 d 1 9 and j d j 9 for j > 1. If k is maximum number of decimal digits carried in the floating-point
8 computation of a computer; then p is represented byfl chop (p) and is given by: fl chop (p) = ±0.d 1 d 2 d 3 d k 10 n The number fl chop (p) is called the chopped floating-point representation of p. An alternative k digits representation is the rounded floating-point representation fl round (p) which is given by: fl chop (p) = ±0.d 1 d 2 d 3 r k 10 n The digit r k is obtained by rounding the the number d k d k+1 d k+2 to the nearest integer. Example The real number p = 22 7 = has the following six digits representations: fl chop (p) = fl round (p) = Usually computers use some form of rounded floating point representation
9 method. O(h n ) Order of Approximation Definition The function f(h) is said to be big Oh ofg(h), denoted by f(h) = O(g(h)), if there exist constants C and c such that f(h) Cg(h), whenever h c. (1) Definition 0.1 The functionf(h) is said to be big Oh of g(h), denoted f(h) = O(g(h)), if there exist constants C and c such that f(h) C g(h), whenever h c. (2) Example 0.1 Consider the functionf(x) = x 2 +1 and g(x) = x 3. Since x 2 x 3 and1 x 3 forx 1, it follows thatx x 3 forx 1. Therefore, f(x) = O(g(x))
10 Definition 0.2 The sequence {x n } n=1 is said to be of order big Oh of {y n } n=0 (denoted x n = O(y n )), if there exist constants C andn such that x n C y n, whenever n N. (3) Example 0.2 Consider the sequence x n = n2 1 x n is of the ordero( 1 n ), since n2 1 n 3 n 3. n2 n 3 = 1 n whenever n 1 Remark 0.1 When a function f(h) is approximated by the function p(h), the error bounds is known to bem h n. Definition 0.3 We say that the functionp(h) approximates the functionf(h) with order of approximation O(h n ) and we write: f(h) = p(h)+o(h n ), if there exist a constant M > 0 and a positive integer n so that f(h) p(h) h n M for sufficiently small h.

Taylor Series Given a function f(x), we would like to be able to find a power series that represents the function. For example, in the last section we noted that we can represent e x by the power series
