The semilocal convergence of the secant method under $H{\ddot{o}}lder$ continuous divided differences in a Banach space setting for solving nonlinear equations has been examined by us in [3]. The local convergence was recently examined in [4]. Motivated by optimization considerations and using the same hypotheses but more precise estimates than in [4] we provide a local convergence analysis with the following advantages: larger radius of convergence and finer error estimates on the distances involved. The results can be used for projection methods, to develop the cheapest possible mesh refinement strategies and to solve equations involving autonomous differential equations [1], [4], [7], [8].

We determine the radius of convergence for some Newton{type methods (NTM) for approximating a locally unique solution of an equation in a Banach space setting. A comparison is given between the radii of (NTM) and Newton's method (NM). Numerical examples further validating the theoretical results are also provided in this study.
