ABSTRACT: As we know that the power series method is a very effective method for solving the Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) which have variable coefficient, so in this paper we have studied how to solve second-order ordinary differential equation with variable coefficient at a singular point t = 0 and determined the form of second linearly independent solution. Based on the roots of initial equation there are real and complex cases. When the roots of initial equation are real then there are three kinds of second linearly independent solutions. If the roots of the initial equation are distinct complex numbers, then the solution is complex-valued.
