Theory:  Taylor series approximation gives a pretty good approximation of a continuous function into an algebric form. It can give approximation of PDE of all forms and all orders. here we have an equation which is a second order derivative, `(del^2f)/(delx^2)`. According to Taylor series we can use 3 types of…

Theory: In a problem involving change that takes plcae as time goes by it is necessary to see its effects as time passes. As the solution approaches to a state it won't change any further this is what we call a Steady state. Many a time it is important to understand the effects to time passing on a process. This process…
