Secant constructor

const Secant({ required String function, required double a, required double b, double tolerance = 1.0e-10, int maxSteps = 15, })

Creates a Secant object to find the root of an equation by using the secant method. Ideally, the two guesses should be close to the root.

• function: the function f(x);
• a: the first interval in which evaluate f(a);
• b: the second interval in which evaluate f(b);
• tolerance: how accurate the algorithm has to be;
• maxSteps: how many iterations at most the algorithm has to do.

Implementation

const Secant({
  required super.function,
  required this.a,
  required this.b,
  super.tolerance = 1.0e-10,
  super.maxSteps = 15,
});
