AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on solving the polynomial function f(x) = x^3 + 4x - 6 = 0 using Newton's method. The user initially encountered a mistake in their program but corrected it and used a seed value of 1, successfully finding the solution x = 1.1347. They confirm that this is the only solution to the equation. The conversation emphasizes the effectiveness of Newton's method for finding roots of polynomial functions.

Please find the solution of polynomial function :
$$f(x)=x^3+4x- 6=0$$
I use Newton's method to solve it
and I also write a program (using excel) for help$$$$$$$$

sorry I mistype the function in my program
I tried again using the correct function and put seed 1 , and get the answer x=1.1347
there is only one solution
x=1.1347

That's the correct solution. What is your question?

Thread 'Is this public key encryption?'
I've tried to intuit public key encryption but never quite managed. But this seems to wrap it up in a bow. This seems to be a very elegant way of transmitting a message publicly that only the sender and receiver can decipher. Is this how PKE works? No, it cant be. In the above case, the requester knows the target's "secret" key - because they have his ID, and therefore knows his birthdate.
I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
