RE: Lambert W function (for HP Prime)
Does HP Prime have LambertW built-in ?
XCas> solve(x^2 = 2^x, x) [-exp(-LambertW(ln(2)/2)), exp(-LambertW(-ln(2)/2)), exp(-LambertW(-ln(2)/2,-1))] XCas> float(ans()) [-0.766664695962, 2.0, 4.0] --- I think it is safe to use Halley's method for W. Think of Halley's method as correction to Newton's method slope. For W, slope correction is at most 50% (when x is *far* from -1/e) |
