Abstract:
      Using the forms of Newton iterative function, the iterative function of Newton's method to handle the problem of multiple roots and the Halley iterative function, we give a class of iterative formulae for solving equations in one variable in this paper and show that their convergence order is at least quadratic. At last we employ our methods to solve some non-linear equations and compare them with Newton's method and Halley's method. Numerical results show that our iteration schemes are convergent if we choose two suitable parametric functions $\lambda (x)$ and $\mu (x)$. Therefore, our iteration schemes are feasible and effective.
