Abstract

Abstract An algorithm for computing the solution of a linear system of algebraic equations is described. If the system is rank deficient, then the minimum norm least‐squares solution is obtained. The method utilizes Gaussian elimination with scaled partial pivoting and (in rank deficient case) orthogonal triangularizations on the remaining coefficient matrix.
