% This program finds a root of a transcendental function given an initial
% guess. It uses the Steffensen algorithm.
% The goal ?- go finds a root of
%
% 2
% 1 - X
%
% given X = 1.7 as an initial guess, requiring that the solution give a value
% no more than 0.0000005 from zero.
getnext(X,NX):-
NX = X - (F / G),
eval(X,F),
getg(X,G).
getg(X,G):-
G = (FF - F)/F,
eval(X,F),
eval(X+F,FF).
eval(X,1 - X * X).
small(X,E):-
X < 0,
(0-X) < E .
small(X,E):-
X >= 0,
X < E .
solve(I,E):-
eval(I,F),
small(F,E),
printf("%10.8f\n",[I]).
solve(I,E):-
printf("%10.8f\n",[I]),
getnext(I,X),
solve(X,E).
go:- solve(1.7,0.0000005).
