  1. How might I find a root-seeking program's "order of convergence"?

  2. For an iteration program, how might I examine the effect of the rounding-error? (If MATLAB displays the iterates to 4 d.p., does that mean it is working with that level of accuracy or does it work with more digits internally?)

Thanks.

    Welcome to math.sx! You should try to write a more descriptive title. As for matlabs display of numbers, you can change it with `format long` or with `fprintf` if that's what you mean2011-09-05
