Abstract

The results produced by Richardson extrapolation, though, in general, very accurate, are inexact. Numerical evaluation of this inexactness and implementation of the evaluation in practice are the objectives of this paper. First, considering linear changes of errors in the convergence plots, asymptotic upper bounds are proposed for the errors. Then, the achievement is extended to the results produced by Richardson extrapolation, and finally, an error-controlling procedure is proposed and successfully implemented in approximate computations originated in science and engineering.
