Rayleigh quotient iteration is an eigenvalue algorithm which extends the idea of the inverse iteration by using the Rayleigh quotient to obtain increasingly accurate eigenvalue estimates.

Rayleigh quotient iteration is an iterative method, that is, it must be repeated until it converges to an answer (this is true of all eigenvalue algorithms). Fortunately, very rapid convergence is guaranteed; in practice, no more than a few iterations are ever needed.

Example Usage of iteration

cyetain: @jimhighsmith If you are in the tech debt death spiral, invest 10-15% of every iteration on refactoring. #adp09
tim_dempsey: I've got a great feeling about the 4th iteration of this document - very punchy
wordia: And so.... the Wordia Schools Pilot launches... (the first iteration!) . Loads of hard work. Hope the educators like it!
