In this chapter, we briefly discuss some numerical methods for solving boundary value problems. These are the Galerkin method and its variants: the Petrov-Galerkin method and the generalized Galerkin method. In Section 9.4, we rephrase the conjugate gradient method, discussed in Section 5.6, for solving variational equations.
