Abstract:
This article discusses the new iterative method using weight function and Jarratt’s
method for solving nonlinear equations. The convergence analysis using Taylor
expansion shows that the proposed method has a fourth order convergence with
efficiency index is 1.587. The numerical comparisons of the method to some other
fourth order methods using several examples show that in general the proposed
method has a better result so it can be used as an alternative method for solving
nonlinear equations.
