EDSAC order code

The EDSAC subroutine library had two Runge-Kutta subroutines: G1 for 35-bit values and G2 for 17-bit values. A demo of G1 is given here. Setting up the parameters is rather complicated, but after that it's just a matter of calling G1 once for every step in the Runge-Kutta process.

Since EDSAC real numbers are restricted to -1 <= x < 1, the values in the Rosetta Code task have to be scaled down. For comparison with other languages it's convenient to divide the y values by 1000. With 100 steps, a convenient time interval is 1/128.

G1 can solve equations in several variables, say y_1, ..., y_n. The user must provide an auxiliary subroutine which calculates dy_1/dt, ..., dy_n/dt from y_1, ..., y_n. If the derivatives also depend on t (as in the Rosetta Code task) it's necessary to add a dummy y variable which is identical with t.

 [Demo of EDSAC library subroutine G1: Runge-Kutta solution of differential equations.
  Full description is in Wilkes, Wheeler & Gill, 1951 edn, pages 32-34, 86-87, 132-134.

  Before using G1, we need to fix n, m, a, b, c, d, as defined in WWG pages 86-87:
  n = number of equations (2 for the Rosetta Code example).
  2^m = multiplier for the hy', as large as possible without causing numeric overflow;
    with the scaling chosen here, m = 5.
  Variables y are stored in n consecutive long locations, the last of which is aD.
  Scaled derivatives (2^m)hy' in n consecutive long locations, the last of which is bD.
  G1 uses working variables in n consecutive long locations, the last of which is cD.
  d = address of user-supplied auxiliary subroutine, which calculates the (2^m)hy'.

  For convenience, keep G1 and its storage together. Start at (say) 400 and place:
      variables y at 400D, 402D;
      scaled derivatives at 404D, 406D;
      workspace for G1 at 408D, 410D;
      G1 itself at 412.
  If the base address is placed in location 51 at load time, all the above
    addresses can be accessed via the G parameter:]

            P  300 F [X parameter: P d F]

rk4=: adverb define
 'Y0 a b h'=. 4{. y
 T=. a + i.@>:&.(%&h) b-a
 (,. [: h&(u nextY)@,/\. Y0 ,~ }.)&.|. T
)

NB. nextY a Calculate Yn+1 of a function using Runge-Kutta method
NB. y is: 2-item numeric list of time t and y(t)
NB. u is: function to use
NB. x is: step size
NB. eg: 0.001 fyp nextY 0 1

jq

In this section, two solutions are presented. They use "while" and/or "until" as defined in recent versions of jq (after version 1.4). To use either of the two programs with jq 1.4, simply include the lines in the following block:

def until(cond; next):
  def _until: if cond then . else (next|_until) end;
  _until;

def while(cond; update):
  def _while:  if cond then ., (update | _while) else empty end;
  _while;

The Example Differential Equation and its Exact Solution

# yprime maps [t,y] to a number, i.e. t * sqrt(y)
def yprime: .[0] * (.[1] | sqrt);
 
# The exact solution of yprime:
def actual:
  . as $t
  | (( $t*$t) + 4 )
  | . * . / 16;

dy/dt

The first solution presented here uses the terminology and style of the Raku version.

Generic filters:

# n is the number of decimal places of precision
def round(n):
  (if . < 0 then -1 else 1 end) as $s
  | $s*10*.*n | if (floor % 10) > 4 then (.+5) else . end | ./10 | floor/n | .*$s;

def abs: if . < 0 then -. else . end;

# Is the input an integer?
def integerq: ((. - ((.+.01) | floor)) | abs) < 0.01;

dy(f)

def dt: 0.1;

# Input: [t, y]; yp is a filter that accepts [t,y] as input
def runge_kutta(yp):
  .[0] as $t | .[1] as $y
  | (dt * yp) as $a
  | (dt * ([ ($t + (dt/2)), $y + ($a/2) ] | yp)) as $b
  | (dt * ([ ($t + (dt/2)), $y + ($b/2) ] | yp)) as $c
  | (dt * ([ ($t + dt)    , $y + $c     ] | yp)) as $d
  | ($a + (2*($b + $c)) + $d) / 6
;

# Input: [t,y]
def dy(f): runge_kutta(f);

Example:

# state: [t,y]
[0,1]
| while( .[0] <= 10;
         .[0] as $t | .[1] as $y
         | [$t + dt, $y + dy(yprime) ] )
| .[0] as $t | .[1] as $y
| if $t | integerq then
     "y(\($t|round(1))) = \($y|round(10000)) ± \( ($t|actual) - $y | abs)" 
  else empty
  end

newRK4Step

The second solution follows the nomenclature and style of the Go solution on this page.

In the following notes:

  • ypFunc denotes the type of a jq filter that maps [t, y] to a number;
  • ypStepFunc denotes the type of a jq filter that maps [t, y, dt] to a number.

The heart of the program is the filter newRK4Step(yp), which is of type ypStepFunc and performs a single step of the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method, provided yp is of type ypFunc.

# Input: [t, y, dt]
def newRK4Step(yp):
  .[0] as $t | .[1] as $y | .[2] as $dt
  | ($dt * ([$t, $y]|yp))              as $dy1
  | ($dt * ([$t+$dt/2, $y+$dy1/2]|yp)) as $dy2
  | ($dt * ([$t+$dt/2, $y+$dy2/2]|yp)) as $dy3
  | ($dt * ([$t+$dt, $y+$dy3]    |yp)) as $dy4
  | $y + ($dy1+2*($dy2+$dy3)+$dy4)/6
;

MATLAB

The normally-used built-in solver is the ode45 function, which uses a non-fixed-step solver with 4th/5th order Runge-Kutta methods. The MathWorks Support Team released a package of fixed-step RK method ODE solvers on MATLABCentral. The ode4 function contained within uses a 4th-order Runge-Kutta method. Here is code that tests both ode4 and my own function, shows that they are the same, and compares them to the exact solution.

Perl

There are many ways of doing this. Here we define the runge_kutta function as a function of and , returning a closure which itself takes as argument and returns the next .

Notice how we have to use sprintf to deal with floating point rounding. See perlfaq4.

sub runge_kutta {
    my ($yp, $dt) = @_;
    sub {
	my ($t, $y) = @_;
	my @dy =  $dt * $yp->( $t        , $y );
	push @dy, $dt * $yp->( $t + $dt/2, $y + $dy[0]/2 );
	push @dy, $dt * $yp->( $t + $dt/2, $y + $dy[1]/2 );
	push @dy, $dt * $yp->( $t + $dt  , $y + $dy[2] );
	return $t + $dt, $y + ($dy[0] + 2*$dy[1] + 2*$dy[2] + $dy[3]) / 6;
    }
}
 
my $RK = runge_kutta sub { $_[0] * sqrt $_[1] }, .1;
 
for(
    my ($t, $y) = (0, 1);
    sprintf("%.0f", $t) <= 10;
    ($t, $y) = $RK->($t, $y)
) {
    printf "y(%2.0f) = %12f ± %e\n", $t, $y, abs($y - ($t**2 + 4)**2 / 16)
    if sprintf("%.4f", $t) =~ /0000$/;

Racket

See Euler method#Racket for implementation of simple general ODE-solver.

The Runge-Kutta method

(define (RK4 F δt)
  (λ (t y) 
    (define δy1 (* δt (F t y)))
    (define δy2 (* δt (F (+ t (* 1/2 δt)) (+ y (* 1/2 δy1)))))
    (define δy3 (* δt (F (+ t (* 1/2 δt)) (+ y (* 1/2 δy2)))))
    (define δy4 (* δt (F (+ t δt) (+ y δy1))))
    (list (+ t δt) 
          (+ y (* 1/6 (+ δy1 (* 2 δy2) (* 2 δy3) δy4))))))

The method modifier which divides each time-step into n sub-steps:

(define ((step-subdivision n method) F h)
  (λ (x . y) (last (ODE-solve F (cons x y) 
                              #:x-max (+ x h) 
                              #:step (/ h n)
                              #:method method))))

Usage:

(define (F t y) (* t (sqrt y)))

(define (exact-solution t) (* 1/16 (sqr (+ 4 (sqr t)))))

(define numeric-solution 
    (ODE-solve F '(0 1) #:x-max 10 #:step 1 #:method (step-subdivision 10 RK4)))

(for ([s numeric-solution])
  (match-define (list t y) s)
  (printf "t=~a\ty=~a\terror=~a\n" t y (- y (exact-solution t))))
