We propose a novel way to describe numerical methods for ordinary differential equations via the notion of multi-indice. The main idea is to replace rooted trees in Butcher's B-series by multi-indices. The latter were introduced recently in the context of describing solutions of singular stochastic partial differential equations. The combinatorial shift away from rooted trees allows for a compressed description of numerical schemes. Moreover, these multi-indices B-series characterise uniquely the Taylor development of local and affine equivariant maps.
