First order differential equations
Euler's Method
▶ Euler's method
This video introduces Euler's Method, a numerical way to approximate solutions to differential equations when analytical methods don't work. Using a table with x, y, and dy/dx values, we start with an initial condition and increment x by a chosen delta x to estimate y values: smaller delta x gives better approximations.
▶ Worked example: Euler's method
Finding the initial condition based on the result of approximating with Euler's method.
