The Lax-Wendroff scheme is a numerical method used for solving hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) by approximating the solutions on a discrete grid. This scheme combines time-stepping and spatial discretization, providing a second-order accurate solution in both time and space. It's widely recognized for its ability to maintain stability and accuracy when solving wave propagation problems.
congrats on reading the definition of lax-wendroff scheme. now let's actually learn it.
