Numerical analysis may be ancient, but the rise of computers transformed it, making fast, large‑scale calculations routine and raising new questions about accuracy and reliability. This talk explores Gaussian Elimination, the classic method for solving linear systems powering everything from engineering to finance to machine learning. Join us to discover how this timeless idea still shapes modern computation.
