Thread: iterative

i) describe briefly the 'iterative' approach to solving equations
ii) name two iterative methods

just started looking at the above can anyone answer the question very breifly

What have you "looked at"?

bisection and newton paphsom method

Great. So I'd say you're done with part ii). What about part i)?

It's actually "Raphson", not "Paphson". I suspect that was a typo.

Do you know what the word "iteration means? If not look it up in a dictionary.

yeah sorry that was a typo, thanks for the help.

What is the "iterative approach" to solving equations?
