What is a Differential Equation Solver?

Definition

An algorithm used to numerically solve differential equations is called a solver.

Explanation

For example, if a differential equation is solved using the 4th-order Runge-Kutta method (RK4), one might say, “RK4 was chosen as the solver for solving the differential equation.”
