Math and science::Analysis::Tao::06. Limits of sequences
Square root, expressed as the limit of a sequence
Let \( c \in \mathbb{R} \) be a real. The sequence defined recursively below
converges, and it converges to \( \sqrt{c} \).
Let \( x_1 = c \), and let \( x_n \) be defined like so:
[\[ x_{n + 1} = ?(x_n + \; ?) \]]
