A family of fast derivative-free fourth-order multipoint optimal methods for nonlinear equations

A new optimal family of fast derivative-free fourth-order multipoint methods for solving nonlinear equations are developed along with their convergence and computational properties. Numerical experiments in comparison with existing methods are presented to convince the theoretical development.
