[0212] Specifically, the solution to a system of nonlinear equations usually relies on iterative methods, such as Newton's method; however, if the elimination method is not used: 1. The use of direct iterative methods is sensitive to initial values. If the initial values are not selected appropriately, it may result in failure to converge or convergence to an incorrect solution; 2. For high-dimensional nonlinear equations, the direct solution method is computationally intensive, such as direct solution (Gaussian elimination, matrix decomposition, etc.), which requires more time and computing resources; 3.

[0213] To this end, by using elimination to gradually eliminate unknowns, a complex multivariate system of equations is transformed into a lower-dimensional system. This allows subsequent iterations to be performed on a smaller system of equations, thereby improving solution efficiency. Furthermore, the elimination of nonlinear equations makes it easier to determine whether the system has a solution, determine the number of solutions, and select initial values for iteration. Furthermore, elimination can reduce the complexity of the problem, helping to improve the stability and accuracy of the numerical solution.
