One-step Method
In numerical mathematics, one-step methods and Multistep methods, multi-step methods are a large group of calculation methods for solving Initial value problem, initial value problems. This problem, in which an ordinary differential equation is given together with an initial condition, plays a central role in all natural and engineering sciences and is also becoming increasingly important in the economic and Social science, social sciences, for example. Initial value problems are used to analyze, simulate or predict dynamic processes. The basic idea behind one-step methods is that they calculate approximation points step by step along the desired solution, starting from the given starting point. They only use the most recently determined approximation for the next step, in contrast to multi-step methods, which also include points further back in the calculation. The one-step methods can be roughly divided into two groups: the explicit methods, which calculate the new approximation d ...

Euler Method
In mathematics and computational science, the Euler method (also called the forward Euler method) is a first-order numerical analysis, numerical procedure for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with a given Initial value problem, initial value. It is the most basic explicit and implicit methods, explicit method for numerical ordinary differential equations, numerical integration of ordinary differential equations and is the simplest Runge–Kutta method. The Euler method is named after Leonhard Euler, who first proposed it in his book ''Institutionum calculi integralis'' (published 1768–1770). The Euler method is a first-order method, which means that the local error (error per step) is proportional to the square of the step size, and the global error (error at a given time) is proportional to the step size. The Euler method often serves as the basis to construct more complex methods, e.g., predictor–corrector method. Geometrical description Purpose and why i ...
