a. Change Algorithm 11.2 to incorporate the Secant method instead of Newton s method. Use t0 = (β − α) / (b − a) and t1 = t0 + (β - y (b, t0)) / (b − a).
b. Repeat Exercise 4(a) and 4(c) using the Secant algorithm derived in part (a), and compare the number of iterations required for the two methods.
