Higher-Order Derivative-Free Iterative Methods for Solving Nonlinear Equations and Their Basins of Attraction

Based on the Steffensen-type method, we develop fourth-, eighth-, and sixteenth-order algorithms for solving one-variable equations. The new methods are fourth-, eighth-, and sixteenth-order converging and require at each iteration three, four, and five function evaluations, respectively. Therefore,...
