EULER'S METHOD OF SOLVING ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

 

Estimating an Integral

 

By Autar Kaw



TOPIC DESCRIPTION
 

Euler's method is the simplest numerical method of solving an ordinary differential equation of the form

dy/dx=f(x,y), y(0)=y0.  

This video teaches you how Euler's method can be used to estimate an integral.
