Title: Module 4: Roots of Non Linear Functions
Course: Numerical Analysis

Roots of Non-Linear Functions

This module has two Lectures. In Lecture Seven we describe several iterative methods of determining roots of non-linear functions. These methods include the Bisection Method, the Regula Falsi Method, the Secant Method and the Fixed Point Method. We discuss the relative merits of each method.

In Lecture Eight we discuss the Newton Raphson Method for both univariate and multivariate functions.
