Euler forward method

in mathematics and computational science, this method is a first-order numerical procedure for solving ODEs with a given initial value

Also known as forward Euler method, explicit Euler method

Named after

Description

It is the most basic explicit method for numerical integration of ordinary differential equations and is the simplest Runge–Kutta method.

Formula(s) and Quantity(-ies)

$y_{n + 1} = y_{n} + h f (t_{n}, y_{n})$
$h$ represents time step
$t$ represents time
$y$ represents unknown function
