// Function: root_find()
// Synopsis: Finds a root of the given continuous function.
// Topics: Math
// See Also: quadratic_roots(), polynomial(), poly_mult(), poly_div(), poly_add(), poly_roots()
// Usage:
//    x = root_find(f, x0, x1, [tol])
// Description:
//    Find a root of the continuous function f where the sign of f(x0) is different
//    from the sign of f(x1).  The function f is a function literal accepting one
//    argument.  You must have a version of OpenSCAD that supports function literals
//    (2021.01 or newer).  The tolerance (tol) specifies the accuracy of the solution:
//    abs(f(x)) < tol * yrange, where yrange is the range of observed function values.
//    This function can only find roots that cross the x axis:  it cannot find the
//    the root of x^2.
// Arguments:
//    f = function literal for a scalar-valued single variable function
//    x0 = endpoint of interval to search for root
//    x1 = second endpoint of interval to search for root
//    tol = tolerance for solution.  Default: 1e-15
// Example(2D): Solve x*sin(x)=4
//    f = function (x) x*sin(x)-4;
//    root=root_find(f, 0,25); // root = 15.2284

//   at every step, with refinement using inverse quadratic approximation
