You said partial differentiation. If I partially differentiate the ODE with respect to x, I get 1. With respect to y gives -2y. It's not that I don't want to show working, but I know the above isn't correct, and I don't actually know what I need to do to answer the question. It's not that I am...

The theta reduction to Euler and Crank-Nicholson is all I know how to do for the problem. I'm an engineering student who knows how to follow method for this particular topic, and I struggle with it enough as it is. I have no idea how to do the ODE bit basically, or even what Xn / Xn+1 is for...

Hi All, For the attached question, I think that substituting theta = 0, I get the Euler method back. If I substitute theta = 1/2, I get the Crank-Nicholson (Modified Euler) method back. In terms of accuracy, I know this means that Crank-Nicholson is the more accurate method. I am mostly...
