How to iterate an equation?

Hi I got a problem with iterating an equation and I have to estimate a value from it. Anyone has an idea?

Thanks!

Make an intial guess foor lamda_n, then do a for loop with equaiton 2. Exit the loop when abs(lambda_n+1 - lambd_n) is less than some tolerance.

May I know what should be typed fot this equation? I am not very familiar with MATLAB, thanks

Then you need to read the manual!

Try the MATLAB Onramp tutorial.
