50 / 10 : Interactive / Error analysis / Further reading

[x] Motivation and Context: Consider adding a brief introduction that motivates the need for numerical ODE solvers. What types of problems require them? Why are exact solutions often difficult or impossible to obtain? This would help learners understand the broader significance of the material.
[ ] Interactive Elements: Incorporating interactive elements like sliders or widgets to adjust parameters (e.g., initial conditions, time step) could enhance engagement and allow learners to explore the behavior of solutions dynamically.
[ ] Error Analysis: The notes mention the error introduced by the Euler method but could delve deeper into its sources and how it accumulates over time. A quantitative analysis (e.g., discussing local and global truncation error) would be beneficial.
[x] Alternative Methods: While the Euler method is foundational, briefly mentioning other numerical methods (e.g., Runge-Kutta methods) and their advantages over the Euler method would provide a more complete picture.
[x] Real-World Applications: Incorporating a few real-world examples where ODEs and numerical solvers are used (e.g., modeling population dynamics, chemical reactions, or mechanical systems) would make the material more relevant and interesting.
[ ] Further Exploration: Suggesting resources for learners to dive deeper into the topic (e.g., textbooks, online courses, or research papers) would be a valuable addition.
