Fixed Point Iteration Method
Fixed Point Iteration Method | This method is also known as a direct substitution method or method of iteration or method of fixed iteration.
It is applicable if the equation f(x) = 0 can be expressed as x=g(x).
If x0 id the initial approximation to the root, then the next approximation to the root is given by,
x1=g(x0)
and the next iteration will be
x2= g(x1)
In general,
xn+1=g(xn)
This method converges if |g(x0)|<1 p=””></1>
