520    Nowadays most mathematics done in practice is done on a 
       computer. In engineering it is necessary to solve more 
       than 1 million equations simultaneously, and computers can
       be used to reduce the calculation time from years to 
       minutes or even seconds. This book explains: How can we 
       approximate these important mathematical processes? How 
       accurate are our approximations? How efficient are our 
       approximations?
