This paper describes a one-step method besed upon the Lobatto four-point quadreture formula for the numerical integration of differential: y″(x) = f(x, y(x), y'(x)); y(x0)=y0, y'(x0)=y'0. The method has a local truncation error 0(h6) in y(x) and 0(h5) in y′(x). In the case of linear second-order differential equation, a stability criterion has been developed. Theoretical and computational comparisons of the new method existing method is discussed.
