Fixed Point Iteration Method
Abstract
We discuss the problem of finding approximate solutions of the equation x)0 f()0 (1) In some cases it is possible to find the exact roots of the equation (1) for example when f(x) is a quadratic on cubic polynomial otherwise, in general, is interested in finding approximate solutions using some numerical methods. Here, we will discuss a method called fixed point iteration method and a particular case of this method called Newton’s method
