Given a number n, Fermat's factorization methods look for integers x and y such that n=x^2-y^2. Then n=(x-y)(x+y) (1) and n is factored. A modified form of this observation ...

An extension of the secant method of root finding to higher dimensions.

Newton's method, also called the Newton-Raphson method, is a root-finding algorithm that uses the first few terms of the Taylor series of a function f(x) in the vicinity of a ...

A method for predicting the onset of widespread chaos.

A method for constructing magic squares of singly even order n>=6.

A method for constructing magic squares of odd order.

A method for constructing magic squares of odd order, also called de la Loubere's method.

Brun's sieve was refined by J. B. Rosser, G. Ricci, and others.

Brent's method is a root-finding algorithm which combines root bracketing, bisection, and inverse quadratic interpolation. It is sometimes known as the van ...

A variation of the method of false position for finding roots which fits the function in question with an exponential.
