Two modifications of Newton's method to accelerate the convergence of the nth root computation of a strictly positive real number are revisited. Both modifications lead to methods with prefixed order of convergence p ∈ N, p β‰₯ 2. We consider affine combinations of the two modified pth-order methods w

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.
