Useful examples for Ch.6 and HW4

Example of Matlab code for Simpson's 1/3 method
The example demonstrates how to evaluate the integral of sin(x) from x = 0 to x = 1.

Examples for Runge-Kutta methods

Examples of solutions for B.V.P.
Typo corrected: In the last page, the first element of r.h.s. vector should be 0.14 instead of -0.06.
