Bisection

Computes the root of a function f by bisectioning.

Description

Computes the root of a continuous function f in the interval [a,b] by bisectioning.

For this algorithm the function values of endpoints must differ in sign.

Usage: [c,fc,err] = bisection(f,a,b,delta)

Input arguments:
    f function
    a left endpoint
    b right endpoint
    delta error tolerance
Output arguments:
    c solution
Optional Output arguments:
    fc function value of solution
    err error estimate
