Abstract
The grid solution of the Schrodinger equation allows one to obtain highly accurate values of the binding energy EB of low-lying states of the hydrogen atom in a homogeneous magnetic field B of arbitrary strength. The relative precision of EB in the grid calculations presented was 10-3-10-6 for all the states and fields that appeared in the work by Rosner et al. For some states the precision reaches 10-7-10-8. The results of the calculations allows the author to fill all the gaps in the results of the work mentioned above for B>or=4.7*102 T and to improve the precision of a number of results in the intermediate field region. The computational method is described. The form of the results, set of states and field strengths are as in Rosner et al.
