Depending on if your car has OBD or OBD2 your computer will tell you if it is misfiring, or which cylinders are misfiring... Easiest way if it isn't reporting anything is to buy a little device that hooks up to the plug and the wire in the middle, that way you can see the spark, just to make sure that your distributor, or the coil pack is sending a spark out or that your wires are good... Also check each plug, if any of them look discolored or damaged and what not, replace the set. Plugs don't cost to much.
