However, these methods lose some properties when the problems have multiple roots or are not differentiable, in which case specific methods are used. However, in most problems the multiplicity of the root is unknown, which reduces the range of methods available to us. In this work we propose two iterative classes with memory for solving multiple-root nonlinear equations without knowing the multiplicity. One of the proposals includes derivatives, but the other is derivative-free, obtained from the previous one using divided differences and a parameter in its iterative expression. The order of convergence of the proposed schemes is analyzed. The stability of the methods is studied using real dynamics, showing the good behavior of the methods. A numerical benchmark confirms the theoretical study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/a18090568","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,10]],"date-time":"2025-09-10T08:43:54Z","timestamp":1757493834000},"page":"568","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Secant-Type Iterative Classes for Nonlinear Equations with Multiple Roots"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9116-2870","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francisco I.","family":"Chicharro","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Matem\u00e1tica Multidisciplinar, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Cam\u00ed de Vera s\/n, 46022 Val\u00e8ncia, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7903-8591","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Neus","family":"Garrido-Saez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Matem\u00e1tica Multidisciplinar, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Cam\u00ed de Vera s\/n, 46022 Val\u00e8ncia, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-1241-1787","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Julissa H.","family":"Jerezano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Matem\u00e1tica Multidisciplinar, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Cam\u00ed de Vera s\/n, 46022 Val\u00e8ncia, Spain"},{"name":"Departamento de Matem\u00e1tica, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de Honduras, San Pedro Sula 21102, Honduras"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2007","DOI":"10.1007\/s10910-024-01640-6","article-title":"Convergence analysis of optimal iterative family for multiple roots and its applications","volume":"62","author":"Bhavna","year":"2024","journal-title":"J.
