I really need help please. I don't understand how to do this when i is decrementing. My code is:
clear all
x_old = 100;
x_new = 10; %initialize the x_new value, > 1
i = 0; %current value of the counter
while x_new > 1
x_new = .2+3^(x_old);
i = i-1
x_old = x_new;
end

Dear Rob, I wonder that the problem is with the equation. You can see that in first iteration you have 3^(100) = 5.1538e+47 and in next iteration you will have 3^(5.1538e+47) = ??? The resulting values are are too much large so you should verify your equation. Good luck
