Michael Jordan? edit

Not sure if this is right, but it says that it is named after the basketball player. Is this right? -- anonymous, 20:55, 30 October 2008

No, it's not, it's Wilhelm Jordan. Some people like to come here and introduce falsehoods. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 21:10, 30 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

Online tool edit

The online tool by Felipe Santos de Andrade cited in the external references is in Portuguese, not in Spanish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.175.242.235 (talk) 08:44, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Is this tool necessary? The way it's phrased in the links secton, along with being signed by the author, and the fact it's in a foreign language on the english wikipedia I'd dare hazard Santos de Andrade added it himself. This tool would be more in its right on the portuguese page on Gauss-Jordan, if any. I am not as wiki-savvy as I like to think I am, so I'll leave the actual decision on keeping it to another cntributor. 91.177.187.83 (talk) 23:42, 17 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

(n^3)/3 is less than (n^3)/2 edit

When I saw the page, it claimed that Gauss-Jordan elimination required 50% more computation steps than Gaussian, but that the orders of magnitude, respectively, were (n^3)/3 and (n^3)/2. However, (n^3)/3 is less than (n^3)/2. Hence, I reversed the order of the figures. However, it would be nice if someone (preferably with access to the cited reference) could verify this. -AlanUS (talk) 22:04, 23 July 2012 (UTC)Reply
