Which algorithmic effect arose from Al-Khwarizmi’s initial algorithms?

💡 Explanation

Decimal positional notation allowed Al-Khwarizmi to solve equations with the method of successive approximation; therefore, iterative approximation of roots prevailed due to structured method implementation, rather than enabling modern factorization.
