Single variable optimization

January 1, 2011
By

Optimization means to seek minima or maxima of a funtion within a given defined domain.If a function reach its maxima or minima, the derivative at that point is approaching to 0. If we apply Newton-Raphson method for root finding to f’, we can get the optimizing f.Read More: 223 Words Totally

$one-dimensional integrals$

The foundamental idea of numerical integration is to estimate the area of the region in the xy-plane bounded by the graph of function f(x). The integral was esimated by divide x to small intervals, then add all the small approximations to give a total approximation.Read More: 468 Words Totally

Project Euler — Problem 187

December 23, 2010
By

http://projecteuler.net/index.php?section=problems&id=187A composite is a number containing at least two prime factors. For example, 15 = 3 × 5; 9 = 3 × 3; 12 = 2 × 2 × 3.There are ten composites below thirty containing precisely two, not necessarily distinct, prime factors: 4, 6, 9, 10, 14, 15, 21, 22, 25, 26.Read...

Root finding

December 4, 2010

Numerical root finding methods use iteration, producing a sequence of numbers that hopefully converge towards a limits which is a root. In this post, only focus four basic algorithm on root finding, and covers bisection method, fixed point method, Newton-Raphson method, and secant method.Read More: 1896 Words Totally
