In this study we consider a third order linear differential equation
with variable coefficients characterizing spherical curves according to Frenet
frame in Euclidean 4-Space . This equation whose coefficients are related to special function,
curvature and torsion, is satisfied by the position vector of any regular unit
velocity spherical curve. These type equations are generally impossible to
solve analytically and so, for approximate solution we present a numerical method
based on Taylor polynomials and collocations points by using initial
conditions. Our method reduces the solution of problem to the solution of a
system of algebraic equations and the approximate solution is obtained in terms
of Taylor polynomials.
