The accuracy of this algorithm is relatively low:

Euler method

If we carry out the integration with g(y, t) given from this equation, we obtain a new algorithm

with preparation of

We can always include more points in the integral to obtain algorithms with apparently higher accuracy, but we will need the values of more points in order to start the algorithm. This becomes impractical if we need more than two points in order to start the algorithm.

Is there a more practical method?

Alternative way to improve the accuracy

The Runge-Kutta method

A more practical method that requires only the first point in order to start or to improve the algorithm is the Runge–Kutta method.

We can also formally write the solution at t +τ as

where αi (with i = 1, 2, . . . ,m) and νi j (with i = 2, 3, . . . ,m and j < i ) are parameters to be determined.
