EULER

TI 83

-This program plots an approximate solution for the differential equation ${\hbox{dy}\over 
\hbox{dx}}=\hbox{f(x,y)}$ using Euler's method. The program will ask for initial point and step size. Solutions can be superimposed on a slopefield by running the Slopefield program first. Previous graphs are not cleared.


Note: Information in {} is not put into the calculator. Information in RED denotes a button on the calculator

Note: Information like BLUE(RED) means to access BLUE hit 2ed then RED



The pause command in the program allow you to see the solution in segments. Use ENTER to continue, ON to quit.
An expression for f(x,y) must also be entered in Y1 before running this program. For x use X,T,q,n. For Y use ALPHA then Y.
