## Gleichungen lösen

CubicFormula

      CubicFormula (p)

  Compute roots of a cubic (degree 3) polynomial using the cubic formula. The polynomial should be given as a vector of coefficients. That is `4*x^3 + 2*x + 1` corresponds to the vector `[1,2,0,4]`. Returns a column vector of the three solutions. The first solution is always the real one as a cubic always has one real solution.

  See Planetmath, Mathworld, or Wikipedia for more information.

EulersMethod

      EulersMethod (f,x0,y0,x1,n)

  Use classical Euler's method to numerically solve y'=f(x,y) for initial `x0`, `y0` going to `x1` with `n` increments, returns `y` at `x1`. Unless you explicitly want to use Euler's method, you should really think about using RungeKutta for solving ODE.

  Systems can be solved by just having `y` be a (column) vector everywhere. That is, `y0` can be a vector in which case `f` should take a number `x` and a vector of the same size for the second argument and should return a vector of the same size.

  See Mathworld or Wikipedia for more information.

EulersMethodFull

      EulersMethodFull (f,x0,y0,x1,n)

  Use classical Euler's method to numerically solve y'=f(x,y) for initial `x0`, `y0` going to `x1` with `n` increments, returns an `n+1` by 2 matrix with the `x` and `y` values. Unless you explicitly want to use Euler's method, you should really think about using RungeKuttaFull for solving ODE. Suitable for plugging into LinePlotDrawLine or LinePlotDrawPoints.

  Example:

      genius> LinePlotClear();
      genius> line = EulersMethodFull(`(x,y)=y,0,1.0,3.0,50);
      genius> LinePlotDrawLine(line,"window","fit","color","blue","legend","Exponential growth");

  Systems can be solved by just having `y` be a (column) vector everywhere. That is, `y0` can be a vector in which case `f` should take a number `x` and a vector of the same size for the second argument and should return a vector of the same size.

  The output for a system is still a n by 2 matrix with the second entry being a vector. If you wish to plot the line, make sure to use row vectors, and then flatten the matrix with ExpandMatrix, and pick out the right columns. Example:

      genius> LinePlotClear();
      genius> lines = EulersMethodFull(`(x,y)=[y@(2),-y@(1)],0,[1.0,1.0],10.0,500);
      genius> lines = ExpandMatrix(lines);
      genius> firstline = lines@(,[1,2]);
      genius> secondline = lines@(,[1,3]);
      genius> LinePlotWindow = [0,10,-2,2];
      genius> LinePlotDrawLine(firstline,"color","blue","legend","First");
      genius> LinePlotDrawPoints(secondline,"color","red","thickness",3,"legend","Second");

      FindRootBisection (f,a,b,TOL,N)

  Find root of a function using the bisection method. `a` and `b` are the initial guess interval, `f(a)` and `f(b)` should have opposite signs. `TOL` is the desired tolerance and `N` is the limit on the number of iterations to run, 0 means no limit.
