✦ Synopsis


We apply a family of iterative methods to the problem of extracting the (n)th root of a positive number (R), that is, to solve the nonlinear equation (t^{n}-R=0). For each value of (n) we obtain the method in the family for which the highest order of convergence is reached.

A double iteration process already used to find the nth root of a positive real number is analysed and showed to be equivalent to the Newton's method. These methods are of order two and three. Higher-order methods for finding the nth root are also mentioned. (~) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights
