Euler's Method - Another Example #2

Euler’s Method - Estimating and Finding the Error In this video, we apply Euler’s Method to estimate the solution of the first-order differential equation y ′ = y with the initial condition y(0)=1. We estimate the value of y(3) using a step size of h=1 and then compare it to the exact solution e^3 to calculate the error. This example demonstrates not only how to implement Euler’s Method but also how to analyze the accuracy of your approximation.
