Method Detail

setAccuracy

public void setAccuracy(double accuracy)

Set the accuracy of the answer.

getAccuracy

public double getAccuracy()

Get the accuracy of the answer.

setMaxIterations

public void setMaxIterations(int maxIterations)

Set the maximum number of iterations.

solve

public double solve(FunctionI function,
                    double x1,
                    double x2,
                    double y)
             throws NonlinearException,
                    AccuracyException

Find x between x1 and x2 where f(x) = y.

Throws:

AccuracyException - if the answer isn't found to the specified accuracy.

NonlinearException - if f(x1) and f(x2) don't bracket the root.
