Question

    The order of convergence of Newton-Raphson method

    is:
    A Linear Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Quadratic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Cubic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Logarithmic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Exponential Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Newton-Raphson converges very fast near the root with order 2 (quadratic), meaning error reduces as the square of the previous error.
