Several tools are provided to aid finding minima and roots of functions.
</p>
<p>
Some <a class="link" href="roots/roots_noderiv.html" title="Root Finding Without Derivatives">root-finding without
derivatives</a> methods are <a class="link" href="roots/roots_noderiv/bisect.html" title="Bisection">bisection</a>,
<a class="link" href="roots/roots_noderiv/bracket_solve.html" title="Bracket and Solve Root">bracket and
solve</a>, including use of <a class="link" href="roots/roots_noderiv/TOMS748.html" title="Algorithm TOMS 748: Alefeld, Potra and Shi: Enclosing zeros of continuous functions">TOMS
748 algorithm</a>.
</p>
<p>
For <a class="link" href="roots/roots_deriv.html" title="Root Finding With Derivatives: Newton-Raphson, Halley &amp; Schr&#246;der">root-finding with derivatives</a>
the methods of <a class="link" href="roots/roots_deriv.html#math_toolkit.roots.roots_deriv.newton">Newton-Raphson
iteration</a>, <a class="link" href="roots/roots_deriv.html#math_toolkit.roots.roots_deriv.halley">Halley</a>,
and <a class="link" href="roots/roots_deriv.html#math_toolkit.roots.roots_deriv.schroder">Schr&#246;der</a>
are implemented.
</p>
<p>
For locating minima of a function, a <a class="link" href="roots/brent_minima.html#math_toolkit.roots.brent_minima.example">Brent
minima finding example</a> is provided.
</p>
<p>
