This paper compares the performance of Legendre wavelets (LWs) with integer and noninteger orders for solving fractional nonlinear Fredholm integro-differential equations (FNFIDEs). The generalized fractional-order Legendre wavelets (FLWs) are formulated and the operational matrix of fractional derivative in the Caputo sense is obtained. Based on the FLWs, the operational matrix and the Tau method an efficient algorithm is developed for FNFIDEs. The FLWs basis leads to more efficient and accurate solutions of the FNFIDE than the integer-order Legendre wavelets. Numerical examples confirm the superior accuracy of the proposed method.
