Abstract
This paper presents the derivation and implementation of a computational approach for the solution of some electric circuit problems. The one-step computational hybrid block method was developed using Legendre polynomial of degree six as our basis function via interpolation and collocation techniques. The computational method developed was applied on some practical problems in electricity to generate graphical results and also interpret the natures of these results. The paper went further to analyze the basic properties of the computational method derived. From the graphical results obtained, the computed solutions converge toward the exact solutions.
Keywords: Computational approach, electric circuit problems, hybrid, Legendre polynomial, one-step
