- /* secant.c -- secant root finding algorithm
-
- The secant algorithm is a variant of the Newton algorithm with the
- derivative term replaced by a numerical estimate from the last two
- function evaluations.
-
- x[i+1] = x[i] - f(x[i]) / f'_est
-
- where f'_est = (f(x[i]) - f(x[i-1])) / (x[i] - x[i-1])
-
- The exact derivative is used for the initial value of f'_est.
