Methods

o useBisection 
 public static final double useBisection(Curve f,
                                         double xLow,
                                         double xHigh,
                                         double target,
                                         double accuracy,
                                         int maxLoop) throws NoSolution
Solves an equation using Bisection method. For a Curve f, this tries to find a value x such that |f(x) - target| <= accuracy in a range of x values [xLow, xHigh]. 'NoSolution' exception is thrown if no solution is found after maxLoop tries.

Throws: NoSolution
No Solution Found
o useBisection 
 public static final double useBisection(Curve f,
                                         double xLow,
                                         double yLow,
                                         double xHigh,
                                         double yHigh,
                                         double target,
                                         double accuracy,
                                         int maxLoop) throws NoSolution
Solves an equation using Bisection method. yLow must be f(xLow), and yHigh must be f(xHigh). Use this version if f(xLow) and f(xHigh) are already computed.

Throws: NoSolution
No Solution Found
o useNewtonRaphson 
 public static final double useNewtonRaphson(DeltaCurve f,
                                             double xInit,
                                             double target,
                                             double accuracy,
                                             int maxLoop) throws NoSolution
Solves an equation using Newton-Raphson method. Given a DeltaCurve f, this tries to find a value x such that |f(x) - target| <= accuracy, starting from an initial point xInit. The differential should not be zero. 'NoSolution' exception is thrown if no solution is found after maxLoop tries.

Throws: NoSolution
No Solution Found
o useLinear 
 public static final double useLinear(LinearSegmentedCurve f,
                                      double target,
                                      double xLow,
                                      double xHigh) throws NoSolution
Specialized Solver for LinearSegmentedCurve. Returns the smallest x in the given range [xLow, xHigh] such that f(x) = target (there may be rounding errors).
