Abstract

This paper illustrates an iterative numerical method to find roots of nonlinear equation in a form of f(x)=0 by using 2nd and 3rd order Taylor expansion. The numerical results show that this iteration method is faster than Newton–Raphson, hybrid iteration and the new hybrid iteration method. Also this iteration method needs less than number of functional evaluations than the others.
