Other purpose of this construction is to study the convergence analysis and the upper bounds of errors of the approximate solution is investigated, also we compared with the exact solution to demonstrate the prescribed lacunary spline function interpolation. Keywords: Cauchy Problem, Lacunary Interpolation, Convergence Analysis.
