For the last week or so I have been working my way through Chapter 3 The Solution of Nonlinear Equations found in the textbook “Numerical Analysis: An Algorithmic Approach” by S. D. Conte and Carl de Boor. I also used some C source code from “A Numerical Library in C for Scientists and Engineers” by H. T. Lau, PhD. I implemented twenty examples and exercises from the previously mentioned chapter.

The first solution is from the textbook, Elementary Numerical Analysis: An Algorithmic Approach (c) 1980 by S. D. Conte and Carl de Boor. I translated the FORTRAN code to vanilla C using Visual Studio 2019 Community Version. The second solution is from Boundary Value Problems Second Edition (c) 1979 by David L. Powers. It solves a simple second order linear ordinary differential equation using the finite element difference equation method.
