Nov 27, 2020 at 15:47 comment added A_Pumpkin I am not sure what i do is correct because i have to prove that newton-raphson used on f to find the root 0 converges linearly, yet in my octave script the algorithm converges at 0.00009 in 31 steps instead of 0 in the long run. So i dont know how to prove that it converges linearly to 0 when it doesn't even converge to 0.
Nov 27, 2020 at 15:35 comment added Federico Poloni Well, define "correct". This gives you an approximation with a certain number of significant digits. Switching to a variant may give you a better one. What is 'correct' and what is not?
