[edit] List updater

In subsection A below, listed are articles which are missing from the List of numerical analysis topics. They were found by looking in the categories in subsection C. One can add more categories to be searched to subsection C, see some suggestions in subsection D.

All this process can be restarted by clicking on the link at the bottom of subsection D.

Please note that anything around here is editable, but please don't modify the lines of the form

or their order.

[edit] C: Categories to be searched

The bot will look for potential additions to the List of numerical analysis topics in this list of categories. You may add any other categories to this list, for example from subsection D below. Use the format [[:Category:XXX]] (the colon (:) shows up twice!).
