<P>
Implements a modified version of the
 <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/SecantMethod.html">secant method</a>
 for approximating a zero of a real univariate function.
 <p>
 The algorithm is modified to maintain bracketing of a root by successive
 approximations. Because of forced bracketing, convergence may be slower than
 the unrestricted secant algorithm. However, this implementation should in
 general outperform the
 <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/MethodofFalsePosition.html">
 regula falsi method.</a></p>
 <p>
 The function is assumed to be continuous but not necessarily smooth.</p>
