Regula Falsi C Program

This C program uses the regula falsi method to find the root of a function. It takes initial values x0 and x1 from the user, along with an error value e. It then iteratively calculates a new value x2 using the regula falsi formula and checks if the function value at x2 is within e of zero. If not, it updates x0 or x1 based on the signs of the function values. This continues until convergence within e is reached, at which point it prints the root.
