Question

Exercise 4 (a) Create a flowchart for the secant method. (b) Write a function [y, iterations] = secant(f, x_0, x_1, tolerance) that finds the zero of a continuous function close to $x_1$ using the secant method. If the tolerance is not specified in the argument list, use the default value of $10^{-6}$. The first argument $f$ must be a handle to a continuous function with one real input and one real output. The next two arguments must be real numbers in the domain of $f$ and close to a zero of $f$. The function should return the algorithm's best approximation to the root of the input function and the number of iterations used to compute the approximation.

(a) Create a flowchart for the secant method.
(b) Write a function [y, iterations] = secant(f, x_0, x_1, tolerance) that finds the zero of a
continuous function close to $x_1$ using the secant method. If the tolerance is not specified in the argument
list, use the default value of $10^{-6}$. The first argument $f$ must be a handle to a continuous function with one
real input and one real output. The next two arguments must be real numbers in the domain of $f$ and close to
a zero of $f$.
The function should return the algorithm's best approximation to the root of the input function and the
number of iterations used to compute the approximation.

(b) Write a function [y, iterations] = secant(f, x0, x1, tolerance) that finds the zero of a
continuous function close to x1 using the secant method. If the tolerance is not specified in the argument
list, use the default value of 10^-6. The first argument f must be a handle to a continuous function with one
real input and one real output. The next two arguments must be real numbers in the domain of f and close to
a zero of f.
The function should return the algorithm's best approximation to the root of the input function and the
number of iterations used to compute the approximation.
