Euler Method - Using the Method with Mathematica - Part 3

Numerical Methods for Solving Differential Equations

Euler's Method

Using the Method with Mathematica

(continued from last page...)

Your first use of euler should have gone like this:

prelimsol1=euler[x+2y,{x,0,1},{y,0},4]

{{0, 0}, {0.25, 0}, {0.5, 0.0625},
{0.75, 0.21875}, {1., 0.515625}}

The result looks a little confusing because it's in Mathematica's list format, but it can soon be cleaned up if you issue the command:

MatrixForm[prelimsol1]

Go back and try it now!

Let's go look at what you should have gotten...
