摘要:We establish here new three and four-step iterative methods of convergence order seven and fourteen to find roots of non-linear equations. The new developed iterative methods are variants of Newton's method that use different approximations of first derivatives in terms of previously known function values, thus improving efficiency indices of the methods. The seventh and fourteenth order iterative methods use four and five function values including one derivative of a function. So, the efficiency indices of these methods are , respectively. Numerical examples are given to show the performance of described methods.
