The new technique has been given in this field, accordingly a numerical illustration used to solve boundary value problems by employ quintic B-spline function. An example has been given for calculating maximum absolute error through n nodes. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ijpdea/4/1/3/ijpdea-4-1-3.pdf B-spline boundary value problems approximate solution absolute error
