We have the differential equation
We simulate it with 64-bits floating point. For a large value of n the calculated solution will be:
We have the differential equation
We simulate it with 64-bits floating point. For a large value of n the calculated solution will be:
My attempt was to first solve it by hand:
The two roots: r_1=1/2 r_2=1/3
y_n=C(1/2)^n+D(1/3)^n
y_0=C+D=1 y_1=C 1/2+D 1/3=1/2 (1-D)1/2+D 1/3=1/2
1/2-1/2 D+D 1/3=1/2
-3/6 D+D 2/6=0 D=0 C=1
y_n=(1/2)^n
I don't see where the floating point inequarcy would lead to a wrong anwer for large n. Can you show where it does that?
Question 1:
A second order inhomoegeneous differential equation has the solution
If one are given two start values one would obtain that it is:
If the equation is simulated on a pc with 64-bits floating point one would get for large n that the computed result would be
From the assignment we see that C=0 and D=1 and A as a guessed solution is 1. How can you show that this would create overflow?
