The main characteristic of the MEG iterative method is to reduce computational complexity compared to the full-sweep or half-sweep methods. Due to the effectiveness of this method, the primary goal of this paper is to demonstrate the use of the 4 Point- Modified Explicit Group (MEG) iterative method together with a weighted parameter, namely 4 Point-MEGSOR. The effectiveness of this method has been shown via results of numerical experiments, which are recorded and analyzed, show that that the 4 Point-MEGSOR iterative scheme is superior as compared with the existing four point block schemes. %Z cited By 23
