 *To learn about the method, visit the link below :
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton%27s_method
 *
 * To obtain the square root, no built-in functions should be used
 *
 * The formula to calculate the root is : root = 0.5(x + n/x),
 * here, n is the no. whose square root has to be calculated and
 * x has to be guessed such that, the calculation should result into
 * the square root of n.
 * And the root will be obtained when the error < 0.5 or the precision value can also
 * be changed according to the user preference.
