Newton's Method is an iterative numerical technique used to find approximate solutions to real-valued functions, specifically for finding roots of equations. This method utilizes the concept of tangents, where it starts with an initial guess and refines it by calculating the intersection of the tangent line with the x-axis. The efficiency of Newton's Method lies in its rapid convergence, especially when close to the root, making it particularly valuable in scientific computing contexts.
congrats on reading the definition of Newton's Method. now let's actually learn it.
