| [section Dense Output Stepper] |
| |
| This concept specifies the interface a dense output stepper has to fulfill to be used within __integrate_functions. |
| |
| [heading Description] |
| A dense output stepper following this Dense Output Stepper concept provides the possibility to perform a single step of the solution /x(t)/ of an ODE to obtain /x(t+dt)/. |
| The step-size `dt` might be adjusted automatically due to error control. |
| Dense output steppers also can interpolate the solution to calculate the state /x(t')/ at any point /t <= t' <= t+dt/. |
