this code works:
def f(x,y):return (x-y)/(y+1)
#f(x,y)=(x-y)/(y+1)
h=0.1; n=10
x0=0; y0=1
xn=x0; yn=y0
print("n xn yn")
print("-----------------------")
print("{:3.0f}{:7.1f}{:12.6f}".format(0,x0,y0))
for i in range(1,n+1):
k1 = f(xn,yn)
yn = yn+k1*h
xn = xn+h
print("{:3.0f}{:7.1f}{:12.6f}".format(i,xn,yn))
If you comment the def line and uncomment the f(x,y) line it won't output the formatted output, but would output print(i,xn,yn). It looks like the declaring of the function needs to be in python even though the loop works for both.
Why is this? C
