About this document
Numerical Methods for Root Finding by Paolo Valdez is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document describes numerical methods for finding the highest real root of the function f(x) = 2x^3 - 11.7x^2 + 17.7x - 2. It provides the implementation of fixed-point iteration, Newton-Raphson, and secant methods in MATLAB to calculate the root over 3 iterations starting from initial guesses of x0 = 3, x0 = 3, and x-1 = 3, x0 = 4 respectively. Tables and plots of the results are displayed.
