This value is often multiplied by a “chicken factor” in a method developed by Erwin Fehlberg. A “velocity” parameter multiplies a ratio of two examples of these values to define the Courant number. Time goes to infinity while this value is fixed when evaluating systems for A-stability. A limit as this value approaches zero can be computed by Richardson extrapolation. Equations whose solutions are unstable, except when this value is extremely small, are called (*) “stiff.” A lowercase h denotes this value, which is raised to the n-th power in the global error of an n-th order method. As this value asymptotically approaches zero, Euler's method gets closer and closer to giving the exact answer. For 10 points, give this name for the range in the independent variable over which numerical integration is calculated. ■END■
ANSWER: step size [accept step length or step time; accept interval size or interval length or interval time; prompt on h or alpha; prompt on integration time before “integration”]
