I do not understand why the while loop at the bottom is an infinite loop.
# User enters a positive integer number
user_input = int(input('Please enter a positive integer number: '))
# Make the epsilon value a constant
EPSILON_VALUE = 0.0001
# Choose an initial estimate - set the initial estimate e=x
estimate = user_input
# Evaluate the estimate - dividing the value x by your estimate e,
result = user_input / estimate
# Calculate the difference
difference = abs(estimate) - abs(result)
# If the difference is smaller than your epsilon value, then you've found the answer!
if difference <= EPSILON_VALUE:
print('Square Root')
print(result)
# Else the algorithm must iterate until it reaches the result
else:
while difference > EPSILON_VALUE:
result = ((user_input / estimate) + estimate) / 2
difference = abs(estimate) - abs(result)
print(difference)
