If A is a positive real number, the terms of the sequence defined by can be used

Question:

If A is a positive real number, the terms of the sequence defined by

a || 2 and an 1 (1-1-1-A) an-1 + an- for n  2can be used to approximate √A to any decimal place accuracy desired. In Problem compute the first four terms of this sequence for the indicated value of A, and compare the fourth term with the value of √A obtained from a calculator.

A = 2
