This category contains examples of Truncation Error.

A truncation error is an error associated with limitations in the construction of approximations.

This may arise by:

the use of an approximation rule
terminating an iterative method before it has converged
approximating a derivative by a difference
taking a finite number of terms of a power series expansion, for example a Taylor series
and so on.

It can also arise through truncation of a number.
