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.
