Mathematically Euler's Method works as follows:
Start at a known point (x0​,y0​)
Pick a step size h such that x0​+nh=xfinal​ for some integer n.
Repeat the following steps for each n until the desired x-value is reached:
Find the slope dxdy​=f(xn​,yn​)
Find the next x value xn+1​=xn​+h📖.
Find the next y-value yn+1​=yn​+h×f(xn​,yn​)📖
