Not able to stop value of iterations
2 views (last 30 days)

This is my code. I get my x value correctly, and stops there. The if condition is not iterating and I'm not able to find the root or the number of iterations.
Can anybody please clear me about this?
function [x,i]=newton(R,f,Re,x0,maxiter,tol)
for i=1:maxiter
x=x0-(colebrook(R,f,Re)/colebrook_deriv(R,f,Re))
if (x-x0)<tol
break
disp(['root= ',num2str(x)])
end
fprintf('The number of iterations is: %d\n',i)
end

Better as something like
tol = 10^-8; % or whatever you desire
maxiter = 100; % ditto
err = 1;
its = 0;
while err>tol && its<maxiter
x=x0-(colebrook(R,f,Re)/colebrook_deriv(R,f,Re));
err = abs(x-x0);
x0 = x;
its = its+1;
end
disp(['root= ',num2str(x)])
fprintf('The number of iterations is: %d\n',its)
and, come to think of it, shouldn't colebrook and colebrook_deriv be functions of x, or, alternatively, shouldn't x and x0 be f and f0?
