Newton Raphson And Root Finding Calculator
Newton Raphson And Root Finding: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers function. Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
Newton Raphson And Root Finding Calculator is a planned calculator in the mathematics section of Super Calculator, covering calculus.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: function, initial guess or bracket, tolerance, maximum iterations and method.
Outputs: root, iteration table, convergence rate, residual and divergence warning.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Newton-Raphson iterates x_(n+1) = x_n - f(x_n)/f’(x_n), converging quadratically near a simple root. Bisection converges linearly but is guaranteed on a sign-changing bracket. The secant method avoids the derivative; Brent’s method combines bisection with interpolation for guaranteed and fast convergence.
