Hi,

Can anyone write a c++ programme which allows the user to solve the following non-linear equation:

f(x) = sin(2 x / 5) - x + 1 = 0

to an accuracy of 10^(-5) using both the Bisection Method and the Newton-Raphson method.
The user has to input the appropriate initial estimates to the actual root.

Thanks For The Help!

1. What have you done so far? Pseudo-code? Code? What?

2. How about giving us a precise statement of the program specification? In other words, show us something. You can assume that we know what the Bisection Method is and what the Newton-Raphson method is, so you don't need to describe the algorithms in detail (not yet, anyhow). Tell us exactly what the program has to do. Describe inputs and outputs and program flow precisely. The purpose is not so much as to inform us as it is to get you to articulate the exact nature of the problem so that we know what you are thinking about in your approach to problem solving.

3. Tell us what kind of help you would like. Be specific!.


Regards,

Dave
