In today's lecture: I gave a general overview of the course and its contents. I also introduced ODEs, stability of solutions of ODEs and the Forward Euler method to solve ODEs.

In the next lecture: I will solve the linear transport equation by the method of characteristics.

For the tutorial this friday: Prepare exercises 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and 1.15 and Project 1.3 from the textbook.

Text book for the course: Introduction to PDEs: A computational approach by A. Tveito and R. Winther, Springer, Texts in Applied Mathematics 29.
