Newton-Raphson method using the Math.Commons library

Question

I made a test program to try the NewtonRaphsonSolver class through the Apache Commons Math library. Newton's method is used to find roots for a given function.

The test program that I wrote references the cos(x) function (I have a more difficult function to analyze and am looking at the cos(x) function first).

The code for the test program is

import org.apache.commons.math3.analysis.differentiation.DerivativeStructure;
import org.apache.commons.math3.analysis.differentiation.UnivariateDifferentiableFunction;
import org.apache.commons.math3.analysis.solvers.*;
import org.apache.commons.math3.exception.DimensionMismatchException;

public class Test3 {

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        NewtonRaphsonSolver test = new NewtonRaphsonSolver();
        UnivariateDifferentiableFunction f = new UnivariateDifferentiableFunction() {

            public double value(double x) {
                return Math.cos(x);
            }

            @Override
            public DerivativeStructure value(DerivativeStructure t) throws DimensionMismatchException {
                return t.cos();
            }
        };

        for (int i = 1; i <= 500; i++) {
            System.out.println(test.solve(1000, f, i, i+0.1));
        }
    }
}

Not certain if I needed to reference Math.cos(x) and t.cos() twice

public double value(double x) {
                return Math.cos(x);
            }

            @Override
            public DerivativeStructure value(DerivativeStructure t) throws DimensionMismatchException {
                return t.cos();
            }

Newton's method finds all of the zeroes and displays them to the user.

Is there some way to prevent printing out zeroes that are duplicates? For example, the above output would read

1.5707963267948966
4.71238898038469
7.853981633974483

39.269908169872416

Can this be done inside a for loop or through an array which only prints out values which are not duplicates?
