Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Propose a fixed-point iteration method for f(x) = e^x - x^2 and discuss its potential convergence issues.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Always let's analyze the value of g and how it’s reactive to x.

Question 2

Evaluate the effectiveness of fixed-point iteration in comparison to the Newton-Raphson method for the function f(x) = x^2 - 2. What might lead one to choose one method over another?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider scenarios where one would need accuracy quickly versus a simple calculation.
