Calculator for ordinary first order differential equations

The general linear first order differential equation is given as follows:

  y′ + f(x)⋅y = g(x)

with the initial values

  y(x0) = y0

ODE Calculator with numerical solution and direction field

The solution of the differential equation is solved numerically. The used method can be selected. Three Runge-Kutta methods are available: Heun, Euler and RK4. The initial value can be varied by dragging the red point on the solution curve. In the input fields for f and g, up to three parameters a, b and c are used which can be varied by means of the slider in the graphics.
