    This article deals with ``inhomogeneous'' iterations \(T_n\circ T_{n-1} \circ\cdots \circ T_1\) where \(\{T_n:X\to X\}\) is a sequence of mappings which converges in a suitable sense to \(T_0:X\to X\) \((X\) is a complete metric space). Assuming that \(T_0\) is a contraction, the author proves three results about the convergence, for any \(x\in X\), of iterations \(T_n\circ T_{n-1} \circ\cdots \circ T_1x\) as \(n\to\infty\) to the unique fixed point \(x_0\) of \(T_0\). Based on these results, the author further studies ``inhomogeneous'' iterations of nonnegative mappings \(f_n:\overset \circ {P} \overset\circ P\) in a Banach space \(E\) ordered by a solid cone \(P\) and proves five theorems about the convergence of these iterations; here the corresponding metric space is \((S,d)\) with \(S=\{x\in \overset\circ P:\|x\|\}\) and \(d\) is the Hilbert projective metric. As examples, ``inhomogeneous'' iterations of Hammerstein integral operators are considered. Reviewer's remark: Pages 2 and 3 were missing in the present article, apparently due to a printing error.
