Detailed Documentation

In the MATLAB development environment, users can employ Newton's iteration method to solve nonlinear equation systems. This approach requires providing two custom M-files: fx1(x) containing the system equations and dfx1(x) computing the Jacobian matrix derivatives. The algorithm implements iterative refinement using the formula x_{k+1} = x_k - J(x_k)^{-1}F(x_k), where J represents the Jacobian matrix and F denotes the system equations. Through this computational method, users can address complex mathematical problems with improved efficiency and numerical precision. The implementation allows parameter adjustments and algorithm modifications to optimize results, including convergence tolerance settings and maximum iteration limits. This computational approach significantly enhances mathematical research and practical applications by providing robust numerical solutions for nonlinear systems.
