euler's method in matlab

Here is an example code to implement Euler's Method in MATLAB:

main.m
% Define the function f(x,y)
f = @(x,y) x^2 + y^2;

% Define the initial values
x0 = 0;
y0 = 0.5;

% Define step size and number of iterations
h = 0.1;
n = 5;

% Euler's Method
for i = 1:n
    y(i+1) = y(i) + h*f(x(i),y(i));
    x(i+1) = x(i) + h;
end

% Plot the solution curve
plot(x,y)
title("Euler's Method Solution")
xlabel("x")
ylabel("y")

In this code, we define the function f(x,y) and initial values x0 and y0. Then, we choose a step size h and set the number of iterations n. Using a for loop, we update y and x at each step using the Euler's Method formula. Finally, we plot the solution curve using the plot() function.
