Differential Equations for Engineers
Euler method, which is a simple numerical method for solving an ode. Not all first-order differential equations have an analytical solution, so it is useful to understand a basic numerical method. Then the analytical solution methods for separable and linear equations are explained. We follow the dis-cussion of each theory with some simple ...

5. Taylor and Laurent series Complex sequences and series
www.math.hkust.edu.hk5. Taylor and Laurent series Complex sequences and series An infinite sequence of complex numbers, denoted by {zn}, can be considered as a function defined on a set of positive integers into the unextended complex plane. For example, we take zn= n+ 1 2n so that the complex sequence is {zn} = ˆ1 + i 2, 2 + i 22, 3 + i 23 ...

For nonsrnooth functions, a function-values-only method may. be more successful than using a derivative-based method. We first describe some simple nonderivative methods and then present a series of methods that use derivative information. We
