The new Bisection++ Algorithm

[Namir]

Hello All,

I just posted a second improvement for the Bisection method, which I call the Bisection++ method. You can download the pdf file that discusses it here. I also include Excel files for the Bisection Plus and Bisection++ methods. You can download them from this web page. You can download other new algorithms from that web page too.

Both new methods compete with Newton's method. They use linear slope and inverse quadratic interpolation in a manner that avoids using the slope of the target function. This strategy does not make them vulnerable to low slope values--as is the case with Newton's method.

Enjoy!
