@Carl Love I hope i'll get this right. We stop iterating when the error difference between two consecutive iteration is relatively small. Maybe i should use the word converge. say abs(x[i+1]-x[i]) > 1e-10.

@Carl Love I know that Addition, Sub and mutiplication of matrix is possible. never heard of Division except scalar division.

@Carl Love I cannot think of anything else other than the Jacobian of f : R^m -> R^m. i don't know how to type Matrix here

hope i'm wright

@Carl Love The iterative formula for Newton in single variable: x[new] = x[old] - f(x[old])/f^'(x[old])

@Carl Love  Newton's method in a single variable x[i+1]=x[i] - f(x[i])/f^'(x[i]) where x[i] is the initial guess. i=0..N

@Carl Love  Newton's method in a single variable x[i+1]=x[i] - f(x[i])/f^'(x[i]) where x[i] is the initial guess. i=0..N

Amazing. To be honest with you, I KNOW NOTHING. I don't know where to even start from. Foremost, will download the worksheet for study and I pray I understand every bit of it bcos i am not conversant with some of the syntax therein. Pls i will contact you if I have any problem with any part of the code. Pls. here are my equations.

My y[0] is 1/51. and I use the following code to detemine x[i], i=1..5

x[0]:=1, h:=0.1 AND x[i]:=x[i-1] + i*h     i=1..5

after substitution I did the  fsolve({}) as you instructed. Separating the equations with a comma in the curly braces and I got the following results

I think the equivalent place in your code, you got(with ur randomly generated quest.)

I don't really understand this part of your code

and also

Pls. don't mind my questions. I'm still a newbie

Yes I did but when I showed it to my lecturer, he said my answers were wrong and that I should try another method.

@abbeykabir I've said it befor and i'll say it again. Guy you are always on point!!! It works like magic
