tf, h Final time, and step for integration ([time]). •
n (only 2 ! ) Order of ODE (or system). •
Parameters Parameters: x" + k1 x' + k2 x = 0. •
X0 Initial (n) values. •
Show values ? Shows the graph coordinates.

Solves an n.th order ODE or a system by RK4, the numerical 4.th order Runge-Kutta method. The basis problem is given above, with analytical solution x(t) = [α cos(t) + β sin(t)] exp (-k t).
 Plots x and x' (function and derivative) vs. time.
 A result reported is x(0.5) = 1.145 .
 Other suggested data: (tf, params.) = (16, 0.4, 5).
