Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What does Euler's method use to update the solution?

  • The last two function values
  • The last function value and its derivative
  • Only the last function value

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how derivatives relate to rates of change.

Question 2

True or False: The Runge-Kutta method is less accurate than Euler's method.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Have you compared both methods in terms of step calculations?

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Using Euler's Method, solve the differential equation dydt=3y for y(0)=1 with a step size of h=0.2 for 5 iterations. How does this compare to the actual solution?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how each step builds on the last.

Question 2

Implement the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method for the same function dydt=3y, y(0)=1, over the same 5 iterations. Compare the RK4 output to the values you obtained from Euler's method.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on calculating the k values carefully.
