    The author proposes two general finite-difference conservative schemes. They are applicable to many equations in one space dimension: nonlinear Klein-Gordon, nonlinear string vibration, Shimoji-Kaway and Ebihara equations. The basic property of the procedure is a rigorous discretization of variational dervatives using summation by parts. The results are compared with previous schemes.
