[CSC 435] Testing the Linear Solvers

[Andrew J. Pounds]

One thing you will have to do over the next few days is test you direct 
and iterative solver.   Unfortunately you can't just pick a random 
matrix and vector and solve for $\vec{x}$,

$\hat{A}\vec{x}=\vec{b}$.

What you CAN do, however, is create a matrix $\hat{A}$ and a vector 
$\vec{x}$ and multiply them together to get a vector $\vec{b}$. You can 
then use your matrix $\hat{A}$ and your computed vector $\vec{b}$ as the 
arguments to your direct and iterative linear solvers and you should get 
the vector $\vec{x}$ back.
