Summary

Single step exponentially fitted integration formulae of orders 4 and 6 are derived. The final approximation to the required solution is obtained via a linear combination of asymptotically less accurate solutions obtained using conventional implicit integration formulae. This linear combination is performed in such a way that the final integration formula, as well as having an increased order of accuracy, integrates a certain pre-determined ordinary differential equation exactly. The algorithms developed are illustrated by means of some numerical examples.
