The class of methods developed is symmetric with higher order and smaller error constants compared with the conventional extended trapezoidal rules (ETRs). The BVMs are natural candidates for the solution of boundary value problems (BVPs) and they simultaneously generate the approximate solutions to BVPs on the entire interval of integration. We applied the RETRs to standard non-stiff, stiff and/or singularly nonlinear perturbed two-point BVPs to analyze the efficiency and accuracy of the scheme and it was found to compare favorably with standard methods.</p> ER -
