Abstract: A new version of the piecewise approximation (Pruess) method is developed for calculating eigenvalues of Sturm-Liouville problems. The usual piecewise constant or piecewise linear potential approximations are replaced by translates of $2/co{s}^2(x)$, whose corresponding eigenvalue equation has elementary solutions.
