Help with creating a Newton-Raphson algorithm function

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
As a part of a MATLAB course I've been asked to create a function that will solve a mathematical function by using Newton-Raphson algorithm.
So I've written the following function:
function s=newtRaph(Y,x1)
syms x
y=diff(Y,x);
Y=subs(Y,x,x1);y=subs(y,x,x1);
for i=1:4
xx=x1-(Y/y);
x1=xx;
end
s=x1;
And called it in the script like so:
syms x
y=x-cos(x);
newtRaph(y,3)
The problem is that i get the following ans instead of the solution:
ans =
(4*(cos(3) - 3))/(sin(3) + 1) + 3
Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong?

Since you created a function with a single output you have to also call it with an output .
as below:
Solution=newtRaph(y,3)

Maybe that is the solution but it is way beyond my level of understanding.
Thank you for your help

Add the line
ans = ans
Hope this helps.
