Guassian elimination is a tool for obtaining the solution of equations, to compute the determinant, for deducing rank of coefficient matrix. It is the standard method for solving linear equations. The study was conducted to compare the Linear System of Equations using Gaussian Elimination and Cholesky Decomposition Methods. In achieving this aim, the following specific objectives were laid out to ascertain the difference between Gaussian Elimination and Cholesky Decomposition Methods, determine the easiest methods of solving linear programming problems and examine the linear programming problem using Gaussian Elimination and Cholesky Decomposition Methods. In chapter one, we are concerned with linear systems and the various methods of solving them. In chapter two and chapter three, we dealt with the indept study of Gaussian Elimination method and the cholesky Decomposition method, with their good points and bad points respectively. While chapter four deals with various application area of both methods, their comparison and finally conclusion. This study will be of immense benefit to Statisticians, Mathematicians and other researchers who intend to know more on this study and can also be used by non-researchers to build more on their research work. This study contributes to knowledge and could serve as a guide for other study.
1.1 Introduction
Guassian elimination is the standard method for solving linear equations. As it is a ubiquitous algorithm and plays a fundamental role in scientific computation. Guassian elimination is a tool for obtaining the solution of equations, to compute the determinant, for deducing rank of coefficient matrix. However Guassian Elimination depends more on matrix analysis and computation it emphasis on block pivoting, methods of iteration and a means to improve the computed solution quality. It involves two stages forward and backward stage. Forward stage: Unknowns are eliminated in this stage by manipulation of equations and constitute an echelon form. Backward stage: it is related with back substitution process on the reduced upper triangular method resulting in a solution of equation.
As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.
