Notes
Simpson's Rule is described in
B. Carnahan, H. Luther, J. Wilkes, "Applied Numerical Methods", Wiley
The method requires an odd number of evenly spaced points.
The column labelled "factor" is required and weighs the contribution of
each point to the integral.
To use for tabulated data istead of an analytical function,
enter the endpoint and interval information in rows 3-5, then
enter the intermediate point values in the f(x) column.
DO NOT USE the "Replicate Formula" button.
The integral value will automatically be displayed.

Runge Kutta Integration

The spreadsheet RungeKutta applies 4th order Runge-Kutta Integration for up to 5 simultaneous equations.
The dependent variables are y1, y2, y3, y4, y5, the independent variable is t.
Adapted using notation and methods described in
B. Carnahan, H. Luther, J. Wilkes, "Applied Numerical Methods", Wiley, New York, 1969.
The equations are of the form:

As distributed the following set of equations is programmed

dy1/dt = f1(t,y1, y2, y3, y4, y5)

dy1/dt = -k1*y2*sqr(y1) - k2*y3*sqr(y1)

dy2/dt = f2(t,y1, y2, y3, y4, y5)

dy2/dt = -k1*y2*sqr(y1)

dy3/dt = f3(t,y1, y2, y3, y4, y5)

dy3/dt = k1*y2*sqr(y1) - k2*y3*sqr(y1)

dy4/dt = f4(t,y1, y2, y3, y4, y5)

where k1 = 55.5, k2 = 30.2

dy5/dt = f5(t,y1, y2, y3, y4, y5)

To change the equations, the subroutine
FuncList is edited.
Tools..MacroVisual Basic Editor.
If you do not see the subroutine FuncList,
select FuncList in the rightmost dropdown box .
Edit the formulas.
In the Visual Basic Window, choose File..Close.
Move to the Sheet RungeKutta, and use the Buttons.

As distributed, the Sub FuncList looks like this:

Sub FuncList(t, y1, y2, y3, y4, y5, f)
' Equations are of the form:
' dy1/dt = f(1); dy2/dt = f(2); dy3/dt = f(3)
' dy4/dt = f(4); dy5/dt = f(5)
' where f(1) - f(5) are functions of y1 - y5.
' Additional statements can be added to define constants if desired.
' Edit the following statements. Set f(1) to f(5) equal to zero
' if unused -- do not delete them.
k1 = 55.2
k2 = 30.2
r1 = -k1 * y2 * y1 ^ 0.5
r2 = -k2 * y3 * y1 ^ 0.5
f(1) = r1 + r2
f(2) = r1
f(3) = -r1 + r2
f(4) = 0
f(5) = 0
End Sub
