The authors study alternative methods (with a parameter \(s\)) for solving a polynomial equation. For \(s=0\) this is the Newton-Raphson method, for \(s= 0.5\) they obtain Halley's square-root free method [see \textit{J. F. Traub}, Iterative methods for the solution of equations (1982; Zbl 0472.65040)]. Five examples (including some cases of multiple zeros and clustered zeros) with numerical results are given. Very profound concluding remarks are added.
