    % The fixed point iteration function is assumed to be input as an % inline function. % This function will calculate and return the fixed point, p, % that makes the expression f(x) = p true to within the desired % tolerance, tol. format compact % This shortens the output. format long % This prints more decimal places. for i = 1: 1000 % get ready ...

  3. Newton's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_method

    In the formulation given above, the scalars x n are replaced by vectors x n and instead of dividing the function f(x n) by its derivative f ′ (x n) one instead has to left multiply the function F(x n) by the inverse of its k × k Jacobian matrix J F (x n). [18] [19] [20] This results in the expression

    MATLAB (an abbreviation of "MATrix LABoratory" [22]) is a proprietary multi-paradigm programming language and numeric computing environment developed by MathWorks.MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages.

  5. Numerical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_analysis

    The field of numerical analysis predates the invention of modern computers by many centuries. Linear interpolation was already in use more than 2000 years ago. Many great mathematicians of the past were preoccupied by numerical analysis, [5] as is obvious from the names of important algorithms like Newton's method, Lagrange interpolation polynomial, Gaussian elimination, or Euler's method.

  6. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    A function f from a set X to a set Y is an assignment of one element of Y to each element of X. The set X is called the domain of the function and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. If the element y in Y is assigned to x in X by the function f, one says that f maps x to y, and this is commonly written = ().

    The secant method is an iterative numerical method for finding a zero of a function f.Given two initial values x 0 and x 1, the method proceeds according to the recurrence relation

  9. Romberg's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romberg's_method

    To estimate the area under a curve the trapezoid rule is applied first to one-piece, then two, then four, and so on. One-piece. Note since it starts and ends at zero, this approximation yields zero area.
