Glossary of Variables

Equation (f(x)): The function for which the root is to be found.
Initial Guess: The starting point for the iterative process.
Root: The value of x for which f(x) = 0.

FAQ

What is Newton's Method?

Newton's Method is a root-finding algorithm that uses successive approximations to find the zero of a function.

When should I use an initial guess?

An initial guess is required to start the iterative process of Newton's Method. The closer the guess to the actual root, the faster the convergence.
