Documentation

Definition

In the standard iteration method for calculating the zero positions for a polynomial, the relative increment is the increment applied to the start value for the Newton's method along the specified interval. The larger the relative increment, the smaller the increments along the interval.

Examples

Relative increment = 10

From 0 to 10, the interval is processed in increments of 1. In other words, Newton's method is applied to the initial values x0 = 1, 2, ..., 10. Up to 100, the increment increases to 10, up to 1000 the increment is 100, and so on.
