zero, an Octave code which finds a zero of a scalar function of a scalar variable, by Richard Brent.
The method does not require the use of derivatives, and does not assume that the function is differentiable.

zero is available in a C version and a C++ version and a FORTRAN90 version and a MATLAB version and an Octave version and a Python version and an R version.
fsolve_test, an Octave code which calls fsolve() which seeks the solution x of one or more nonlinear equations f(x)=0.
test_zero, an Octave code which defines some test functions for which zeroes can be sought.
Original FORTRAN77 version by Richard Brent; Octave version by John Burkardt.
