  1. Alright, future engineers!
    **Truncation Error** occurs when an exact mathematical procedure is replaced by an approximation, often by cutting off an infinite series.
    Ex: Using only the first few terms of a Taylor series for `e^x`.
    Pro-Tip: This error is *predictable* and *controllable* by refining your approximation!

  2. Alright, future engineers!
    **Relative Error:** Quantifies how much an approximation deviates, *relative to the true value*. Ex: `RE = |(Approx - True) / True|`. Pro-Tip: Essential for evaluating precision and setting engineering tolerances!

  3. Alright, future engineers!

    **Truncation Error** is the inaccuracy from ending an infinite math process (like a series or integral) at a finite step. Ex: `e^x` approximated by `1+x`. Pro-Tip: You can *control* it by adjusting step size or terms, unlike round-off error!

  4. **Truncation Error** is the error from approximating an infinite mathematical process with a finite one. Ex: Using a finite Taylor series sum. Pro-Tip: It typically decreases with smaller step sizes (h) or more terms (N)!

  5. Condition Number measures how sensitive a problem's output is to tiny input changes. Large condition number = huge output errors! Pro-Tip: It's key for understanding solution reliability; high values mean your problem is ill-conditioned and results are unreliable!
