Root Finding

IntervalArithmeticPlayground.rootfinding_with_bisection Function

rootfinding_with_bisection(f, dom=entireinterval(Float64); maxiter=16)

Find the roots of a function   in a given interval dom using the bisection method. The function returns a list of intervals that may contain the roots.

Arguments

• f: The function for which to find roots.

• dom: The interval in which to search for roots. The default is the entire real line.

• maxiter: The maximum number of iterations for refining the intervals.

Example

using IntervalArithmeticPlayground
f(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 + x - 0.05
dom = interval(Float64, -10, 10)
roots = rootfinding_with_bisection(f, dom, maxiter=10)
