Euler's Method for y' = y
Graphed below is the direction field for the differential equation y' = y and the first few iterations of Euler's method for the solution starting at the start point. (Initially (0,1))
Drag the slider to change the jump size when running Euler's method.
Drag the start point around to try a different starting value.
Type "f(x) = ___" to graph potential solution functions and compare with what you get running Euler's method.
