    This document describes a student's library activity applying the bisection method to find the root of a function. The bisection method iteratively narrows down the range between two values, a and b, within which the root must lie. The function is evaluated at the midpoint Xn of each interval and the range is restricted to where the sign change occurs until the error is less than a threshold. The results are printed and plotted at each iteration.
