Abstract

In this paper we have proposed a finite difference method for the numerical solving general third order boundary-value problem. Under appropriate conditions we have discussed the convergence of the proposed method. The computational results in experiment on test problems verify the efficiency and theoretically established second order accuracy of the proposed method.
