there are good explanation of this method

I know something about C++, not Java,but I was curious to find something that might help you. Here is one code I found, try it:
package mypkg;
//// Mikey
public class Main
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
cubeIT(12.0);
}
public static void cubeIT(double a)
{
double x = a/2;
double XX;
for (int i = 0; i <5; i++)
{
x = x * ((x*x*x) + a + a) / (x*x*x + x*x*x + a);
System.out.print(x);
}
System.out.printf("%8.4f\n",x);
}
