Topics: Simple Algorithms: bisection search, Newton-Raphson

This is basically binary search. Straightforward algorithm and review for me.

I learned something new. Or something I probably learned before but forgot about. The square root of a number between 0 and 1 is going to be greater than itself.

Compared different algorithms for finding square root.
