%0 Journal Article %T Local convergence analysis of two competing two-step iterative methods free of derivatives for solving equations and systems of equations %A Argyros %A Ioannis K. %A George %A Santhosh %J - %D 2019 %X Sa£¿etak We present the local convergence analysis of two-step iterative methods free of derivatives for solving equations and systems of equations under similar hypotheses based on Lipschitz-type conditions. The methods are in particular useful for solving equations or systems involving non-differentiable terms. A comparison is also provided using suitable numerical example %K two-step secant method %K two-step Kurchatov method %K local convergence %K divided differences %K Fr¡äechet-derivative %K radius of convergence %K Lipschitz conditions %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=330703
