The computation of the eigenvalues of a Sturm-Liouville problem is a difficult task, when high-index eigenvalues are computed. In most previous methods, it can be seen that the uncertainty of the results increases as the estimated eigenvalues grow larger. This paper is to present some new methods in which, not only the error of calculating the higher eigenvalues does not grow, but it also vanishes as eigenvalues tend to infinity. Moreover, the proposed method gives good estimates of eigenfunctions corresponding to high eigenvalues.
