FIXED POINT ITERATION
homepage.divms.uiowa.edu › ~whan › 3800by means of xed point iteration: x n+1 = g(x n); n = 0;1;2;::: It is called ‘ xed point iteration’ because the root of the equation x g(x) = 0 is a xed point of the function g(x), meaning that is a number for which g( ) = . The Newton method x n+1 = x n f(x n) f0(x n) is also an example of xed point iteration, for the equation x = x f(x) f0(x)
Iteration Method for Solving Recurrences
www.codesdope.com › course › algorithms-lets-iterateIteration Method for Solving Recurrences. In this method, we first convert the recurrence into a summation. We do so by iterating the recurrence until the initial condition is reached. In the example given in the previous chapter, T (1) T ( 1) was the time taken in the initial condition. For converting the recurrence of the previous example into summation, we would first break T (n) T ( n) into T ( n 2) T ( n 2) and then into T (n 4) T ( n 4) and so on.
