Numipedia

An index of numerical integrators and their properties

Numipedia is a set of static webpages generated using Nodepy, which is a package that automatically analyzes numerical integrators such as Runge-Kutta and linear multistep methods. Numipedia allows users to compare properties of a range of integration methods with nothing more than a web browser.

Shortcomings

This is only meant to be an experiment in what could be achieved. It is woefully incomplete in terms of both methods and properties. A better implementation, which might exist in the future, would allow the user to query a database of methods and properties in more powerful ways. For now, power-users should install nodepy:

pip install nodepy

If you have a favorite method or property that is not included here, feel free to request it in the issue tracker.

Bugs

If you spot anything that is wrong or poorly presented, please raise an issue.
