Newton Raphson Function

Basics

Before starting with your assignment, please go through the following basic exercises:

• w05-bsc-functions-1 #10 (closed)
• w05-bsc-functions-2 #11 (closed)

Objective

The overall objective of this assignment is to implement the Newton Raphson Method in various functions. Specifically, the code needs to be split into meaningful subparts and implemented in functions.

The details of newton raphson method is described in the issue w03-g01-newton-raphson. The details of inverse matrix is described in the issue w04-g01-inverse-matrix.

Implementation

0. Use the file named newton_raphson_function.cpp as a starting point which is provided in the tehpc/basics/ directory.

1. Include the header file "matrices_operations.h" on the top of newton_raphson_function.cpp.

2. Follow the comments given in the file and complete the implememtation of functions based on the corresponding code in tehpc/basics/newton_raphson.cpp and tehpc/basics/inverse_matrix.cpp. Use available function from matrices_operations.h wherever possible.

3. Make sure that your code is well structured and commented.

Notes:

Compile and run your code by:

1. going into the tehpc/build/ folder
2. copy tehpc/basics/matrices_operations.h to here
3. compile with the following command: g++ -Werror -Wpedantic -g -o newton_raphson_function ../basics/newton_raphson_function.cpp
4. run code with ./newton_raphson_function
