Java Program to Implement Gauss Seidel Method

This is java program to find the solution to the linear equations of any number of variables. The class provides a simple implementation of the Gauss-Seidel method. If the matrix isn’t diagonally dominant the program tries to convert it(if possible) by rearranging the rows.

Here is the source code of the Java Program to Implement Gauss-Seidel Method. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
