Newton-Raphson is an iterative numerical method for finding roots of equations.
xn+1 = xn − f(xn)/f′(xn)

    Thanks. Any suggestions on how you get them to do change of sign method?

    Also, for the C3 CW, do you just give them this applet and ask them to enter the equation they are working with or get them to make it from scratch?
