	abstract={A fast and simple iterative method is proposed for the
	   determination of a single real root of a real continuous function.
	   The idea is based upon linearizing the original function whereafter
	   the regula falsi is applied to this modified function which leads to
	   a very simple algorithm. The rate of convergence is shown to be
	   quadratic or better.},
