Résumé
The authors construct a family of Newton-like methods with prefixed order of convergence and furnish semi-local convergence results for the family and a global convergence result for some iterative processes. The authors also present fractal pictures that arise from the iterative methods of the family when they are applied to approximate a root of the quadratic polynomial f(t)=t2−5t+4. This shows that iterative methods with prefixed order are not globally convergent, but general convergence for them can be obtained
