Scipy's built-in root finding function: Solve nonlinear equations with Python

We look at using Python’s (via Scipy) built-in function to solve for the roots of an equation. We will return to the implied volatility problem as well as another equation used in previous videos to demonstrate Newton’s method for finding roots.
