Numerical analysis

a measure of how strongly relative errors in a problem's data can be magnified in its solution, introduced for rounding error in matrix work.

In numerical analysis, condition number refers to a measure of how strongly relative errors in a problem's data can be magnified in its solution, introduced for rounding error in matrix work. This meaning comes from Turing (1948) in The Quarterly Journal of Mechanics and Applied Mathematics.[1]
