Wait, is the Newton-Raphson method the one where you find the middle point? I'm getting my numerical methods mixed up here.

An error bound with every iteration? That would be super useful. I hope the answer is D!

Hmm, I thought it could be used for continuous but not differentiable functions. Guess I'll have to review that part of the material.

I agree with Polly, it makes sense to use the first derivative for finding roots.

The Newton-Raphson method is definitely based on the Taylor series and the first derivative. I remember learning that in my calculus class.
