The Secant method finds the root (or zero) of a real-valued function using a secant line formed by two points starting with two estimates of the root x0 and x1. The root of the secant line becomes the next estimate x2. This method is a finite-difference approximation of Newton's method, though it predates Newton's method by over 3000 years.
