From the operation performed it can be learned, that with the Jacobi method, the values of obtained in the nth iteration remain unchanged until the entire (n + 1)th iteration has been calculated. With the Gauss-Seidel method, we use the new values as soon as they are known. For example, once we have computed from the first equation, its value is then used in the second equation to obtain the new and so on. Thus, Gauss-Seidel method help the calculations reach the steady-state solution faster than with the Jacobi iteration. Problem 2
