Foil 17 Runge-Kutta Methods: Modified Euler's method

From Fox Presentation Fall 1995 CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95/96/97. by Nancy McCracken and Geoffrey C. Fox
1 Use the derivative at one time step to extrapolate the midpoint value - use midpoint derivative to extrapolate the function value at the next time step
2 Evaluates the derivative function twice at each time step. Global error - O(h2), second order method
3 Sometimes called the midpoint method
