This MATLAB code finds the root of a function f(x) = cos(x) - x*exp(x) using Newton's method. It initializes x0 to 1, calculates successive approximations x1 by the Newton formula x1 = x0 - f(x0)/g(x0) until the difference between successive values is less than 0.00001, and finally outputs the value of f(x0) which should be close to 0, indicating it has found a root.
