Abstract: In this paper we develop a tool to identify functions which have no iterative roots of any order. Using this, we prove that when $X$ is $[0,1{]}^m$, $mathbb{R}^m$ or $S^1$, every non-empty open set of the space $mathcalC(X)$ of continuous self-maps on $X$ endowed with the compact-open topology contains a map that does not have even discontinuous iterative roots of order $nge2$. This, in particular, proves that the complement of $f^n:finmathcalC(X)extandnge2$, the set of non-iterates, is dense in $mathcalC(X)$ for these $X$.
