Abstract
In the first part of the paper a general definition of the problem of finding approximate real solutions of nonlinear equations (zeros of continuous functions) is given and an estimate of approximation error is derived. It is followed by exposed Bisection method (The Halving Method) and error analysis. Moreover, this paper presents mathematical software Matlab required for solving nonlinear equations using computers. Everything presented is accompanied by solved examples.
