Note that the overall error is unrelated to convergence in the algorithm but instead to the step size and the core method, which in this example is a trapezoidal, (linear) approximation of the actual function. The step size ''h'' ( <math>\Delta{t} </math> ) needs to be relatively small in order to get a good approximation. AlsoSee seealso [[stiff equation]].
