We seek the solution to set of linear equations:

$A \cdot X = Q$

For the given matrix A and vectors X and Q.
In matrix terms, the definition of the Gauss-Seidel method can be expressed as :
$x^{(k)} = \left( {D - L} \right)^{ - 1} \left( {Ux^{(k - 1)} + q} \right)$
Where D,L and U represent the diagonal, lower triangular and upper triangular matrices of coefficient matrix A and k is iteration counter.

The pseudocode for the Gauss-Seidel algorithm:

Algorithm

Chose an intital guess $X^{0}$ to the solution

for k := 1 step 1 untill convergence do

for i := 1 step until n do

$\sigma = 0$

for j := 1 step until i-1 do

$\sigma = \sigma + a_{ij} x_j^{(k)}$

end (j-loop)

for j := i+1 step until n do

$\sigma = \sigma + a_{ij} x_j^{(k-1)}$

end (j-loop)

$x_i^{(k)} = {{\left( {q_i - \sigma } \right)} \over {a_{ii} }}$

end (i-loop)

check if convergence is reached

end (k-loop)
