Based on Ostrowski's method, a new family of eighth-order iterative methods for
solving nonlinear equations by using weight function methods is presented. Per
iteration the new methods require three evaluations of the function and one
evaluation of its first derivative. Therefore, this family of methods has the
efficiency index which equals 1.682. Kung and Traub conjectured that a
multipoint itera... hiện toàn bộ
