Also known as forward Euler method, explicit Euler method

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

$y_{n + 1} = y_{n} + h f (t_{n}, y_{n})$
$f$ represents right hand side of differential equation
$h$ represents time step
$t$ represents time
$y$ represents unknown function
