Brent algorithm

To install

Brent's algorithm requires Python 3.8 and the rich library.

To install the library, run:

pip install pydagogy-brent

Then run the following in a Python shell:

from pydagogy_brent import Settings, brent
import math
settings = Settings(x_rel_tol=1e-12, x_abs_tol=1e-12, y_tol=1e-12, verbose=True)
f = math.cos
brent(f, 0.0, 3.0, settings)

To develop

We use the Poetry dependency management system.

We use VS Code, the Black/isort/pylint tools. To install them, run:

poetry install
