INCREMENTAL SEARCH
The incremental search method is a numerical method that is used when is needed to find an interval of two values of ‘x’ that is meant to contain at least one root
​
The incremental search method starts with an initial value Xo, a final value X1 and a constant called Delta. This constant is going to be added to the lower limit of the interval in each iteration in order to go from X0 to X1.
​
We can find the value of x1 easily with this iterativa equation:
​
With the expression mentioned above, we have already a series of values of ‘x’ that we can evaluate on the function.
