The Secant Method is an iterative numerical technique used to find roots of real-valued functions without derivatives. It starts with two guesses and iteratively refines them using a specific formula. While it's efficient and often faster than other methods like Bisection, its success depends on the initial guesses and the function's smoothness. The method's implementation is simple, but it requires careful consideration of convergence factors and may need adjustments or alternative approaches if convergence issues arise.
