Abstract
In this paper, we propose and analyse a new iterative method for solving nonlinear equations. The method is constructed by applying Adomian method to Taylor’s series expansion. Using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), the method is being compared with other existing methods in terms of the number of iterations and solution to convergence between the individual methods used. Numerical examples are used in the comparison to justify the efficiency of the new iterative method.
Keywords: Iterative methods, ANOVA, nonlinear equation, order of convergence
