Foil 10 Basic Discretization of Single First Order Equation

From Fox Presentation Fall 1995 CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95/96/97. by Nancy McCracken and Geoffrey C. Fox


For simplicity, we assume just one first-order equation, where f is the function on right hand side which depends on X and t
We can always solve this by setting up a grid of equidistant points with grid size h=(B-A)/n where n is an integer.
Starting from the initial value, we calculate positions one step at a time
