Question 1

What is the formula for Euler's method?

  • y(n+1) = y(n) + h * f(t(n)
  • y(n))
  • y(n+1) = y(n) - h * f(t(n)
  • y(n))
  • y(n+1) = y(n) + f(t(n)
  • h)

💡 Hint: Remember the structure of the formula.

Question 2

True or False: Euler's method is a higher-order numerical method.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider what 'first-order' means in terms of numerical methods.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Using Euler's method with step size h = 0.2, approximate the value of y(1.0) for y' = 3y with the initial condition y(0) = 1. Run calculations for five steps.

💡 Hint: Keep tracking your values using the Euler update formula.

Question 2

If we change the step size to h = 0.5 in the previous problem, how does it affect the accuracy of y(1.0)? Discuss.

💡 Hint: Reflect on how step sizes influence results in numerical methods.
