In this paper, we derive a new family of eighth-order methods for obtaining simple roots of nonlinear equations by using the weight function method. Each iteration of these methods requires three evaluations of the function and one evaluation of its first derivative, so that their efficiency indices

In this paper, we present a class of new variants of Ostrowski's method with order of convergence seven. Per iteration the new methods require three evaluations of the function and one evaluation of its first derivative and therefore this class of methods has the efficiency index equal to 1.627. Num
We suggest an improvement to the iteration of Cauchy's method viewed as a generalization of possible improvements to Newton's method. Two equivalent derivations of Cauchy's method are presented involving similar techniques to ones that have been proved successfully for Newton's method. First, an ada
In this paper, we present some variants of Cauchy's method for solving non-linear equations. Analysis of convergence shows that the methods have fourth-order convergence. Per iteration the new methods cost almost the same as Cauchy's method. Numerical results show that the methods can compete with C
## a b s t r a c t In this paper, we present two new iterative methods for solving nonlinear equations by using suitable Taylor and divided difference approximations. Both methods are obtained by modifying Potra-Pták's method trying to get optimal order. We prove that the new methods reach orders
