Forward substitution is the process of solving a system of linear algebraic equations (SLAE) 𝐿𝑥=𝑦 with a lower triangular coefficient matrix 𝐿 . The matrix 𝐿 is a factor of the matrix 𝐴 and results from either the 𝐿𝑈 -decomposition of the latter obtained by any of numerous ways (such as simple Gaussian elimination or Gaussian elimination with pivoting or compact schemes of Gaussian elimination) or other types of decomposition. The triangular form of 𝐿 ensures that the process of solving a SLAE is a modification of the general substitution method and this process can be described by simple formulas. In[1], the process of solving a SLAE with a lower triangular coefficient matrix was named the back substitution. It was also noted in [1] that, in the literature, back substitution is usually regarded as solving a SLAE with a right triangular matrix, whereas the solution of left triangular systems is called the forward substitution. We adopt this nomenclature in order to a
