Determines a zero of a 1D function close to two points with the help of the derivative of this 1D function. The two values form a search limit for the unknown zero of the 1D function. You must manually select the polymorphic instance to use.
Let f be the given function. The Newton Raphson Zero Finder VI uses a method that combines the simple midpoint strategy and the Newton strategy.
- Midpoint strategy:
- Newton strategy:
where x1 and x2 are given guesses with
f(x1) · f(x2) < 0The following illustration demonstrates the Newton strategy.
