A Note on the Convergence of an Iterative Scheme for Solving a Quadratic Equation

M. J. Jamieson *

Department of Computing Science, University of Glasgow, Glasgow G12 8QQ, Scotland, UK

The acceleration of convergence of a well-known iterative scheme for solving a quadratic equation is examined in detail. A method for finding square roots, suitable for implementation on a computer with parallel architecture, is given.

Received October 1985. revised May 1986.
