Questions on the numerical functions of Mathematica, implementing numerical methods and numerical computing with Mathematica.
Questions on the vast arsenal of numerical functions of Mathematica, implementing numerical methods, machine numbers and numerical computing in general with Mathematica.
Questions about the precision of machine numbers (floating point double precision reals) should include the tag precision or machine-precision. For numerical integration (NIntegrate and NDSolve), use the tag numerical-integration. Questions about numerical equation solving (NSolve, FindRoot) should use tag equation-solving.
