I suggest you take a look at NDSolve in the Help Browser, or in The Book. I
quote: "NDSolve[eqns, y, {x, xmin, xmax}] finds a numerical solution to the
ordinary differential equations eqns for the function y with the independent
variable x in the range xmin to xmax". And also "NDSolve gives results in
terms of InterpolatingFunction objects". So there should be no problem.
Using the right notation, since f[x] is a known function I take an
artificial example, e.g., f[x] = x^2, and any initial conditions:
In[1]:=
NDSolve[{y''[x] == x^2*y[x] + Cos[x],
y'[0] == 1, y[0] == 1}, y[x], {x, 0, Pi}]
Out[2]=
{{y[x] -> InterpolatingFunction[][x]}}
Now, I trust you know how to use the solution in terms of rules and
interpolation function. Otherwise, you must go back to basics.
