rk1_implicit, a MATLAB code which solves one or more ordinary differential equations (ODE) using the Runge-Kutta order 1 implicit method, using fsolve() to solve the implicit equation, and using a fixed time step. rk1_implicit() is commonly called the backward Euler method.
Unless the right hand side of the ODE is linear in the dependent variable, each step requires the solution of an implicit nonlinear equation. Such equations can be approximately solved using methods such as fixed point iteration, or an implicit equation solver like fsolve().
