Yes, as Traicey implied, learn to format your code. Most of the errors you would have found without asking. F:\C ++ Numerical Methods\Newton_Raphson.cpp(183) : error C2043: illegal break -- a break must be within a loop or switch F:\C ++ Numerical Methods\Newton_Raphson.cpp(184) : warning C4508: 'main' : function should return a value; 'void' return type assumed main() is an int function -- see this -- and must return a value.
