CMP.8:4.1 - Choose what approximation means for this answer

State the original input, admissible answers and receiving use. Select the comparison that use needs: absolute error in a value, relative error away from zero, distance between objects, an optimization ratio, or agreement on a named finite observation. An approximate optimum usually still needs an admissible witness.

For a threshold decision, an enclosure entirely on one side can settle the question even when it is wide. If the enclosure crosses the threshold, return the unresolved decision or refine it. Equality may require another method; do not promise that arbitrary refinement will decide every equality case.

Separate the computational target from any claim about a modeled subject. A result close to the solution of the supplied equations does not by itself establish that those equations answer the physical or organizational question. Preserve the subject interpretation through C.29 and the applicable modeling method.
