Abstract
In this paper a detailed study of the convergence and stability of a numerical method for the differential problem
$$\left\{ \begin{gathered} y'' = f(x,y) \hfill \\ y(x_0 ) = y_0 \hfill \\ y'(x_0 ) = y_0 ^\prime \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \right.$$
has carried out and its truncation error estimated.
Some numerical experiments are described.
