Euler's method

About this app

Explicit Euler step by step: read off the slope at the starting point, follow the tangent for one step size h, new point. The dashed solution curve through each point shows how the method jumps onto neighbouring curves and errors add up. Enter your own right-hand side f(x, y) or pick a preset (slide example, oscillation, growth, decay, logistic); slide the step size, compare with h/2 and h/4, read the error in a log-log plot — order 1, special cases and instability for too large h.
