We prove an \Omega\Gamma/17 log(1=")) lower bound on the depth of any computation tree andany RAM program with operations f+; \Gamma; ; =; b\Deltac ; not; and; or; xorg, unlimited power ofanswering YES/NO questions, and constants f0; 1g that computespx to accuracy ", for allx 2 [1; 2]. Since Newton method achieves such an accuracy in O(log log(1=")) depth, ourbound is tight.1 IntroductionIn this paper consider the problem of approximating the square root of a given number upto... |
