Numerical Methods: Newton & Secant Methods

This document provides instructions for numerical methods lab exercises involving Newton's method and the secant method to find roots of equations. Students are asked to use Newton's method to find all three roots of a given equation using a provided graph to initially guess the roots, and to implement Newton's method to find the root of a separate equation, explaining what happens if the initial guess is x0=0. They are also asked to implement the secant method to find the roots of another equation, guessing the initial points from a provided figure.
