21  /**
22   * Implements the <em>Illinois</em> method for root-finding (approximating
23   * a zero of a univariate real function). It is a modified
24   * {@link RegulaFalsiSolver <em>Regula Falsi</em>} method.
25   *
26   * <p>Like the <em>Regula Falsi</em> method, convergence is guaranteed by
27   * maintaining a bracketed solution. The <em>Illinois</em> method however,
28   * should converge much faster than the original <em>Regula Falsi</em>
29   * method. Furthermore, this implementation of the <em>Illinois</em> method
30   * should not suffer from the same implementation issues as the <em>Regula
31   * Falsi</em> method, which may fail to convergence in certain cases.</p>
32   *
33   * <p>The <em>Illinois</em> method assumes that the function is continuous,
34   * but not necessarily smooth.</p>
35   *
36   * <p>Implementation based on the following article: M. Dowell and P. Jarratt,
37   * <em>A modified regula falsi method for computing the root of an
38   * equation</em>, BIT Numerical Mathematics, volume 11, number 2,
39   * pages 168-174, Springer, 1971.</p>
