Equation Solving

Equation solving is a fundamental mathematical concept involving finding the values of variables that satisfy a given equation, such as linear, quadratic, or differential equations. It is essential in fields like physics, engineering, and computer science for modeling and problem-solving. Techniques range from algebraic manipulation to numerical methods like Newton-Raphson or matrix operations.
