RungeKutta.hpp

/*
To use the Runge-Kutta solver for systems of first order differential equations,
   (the parametric object E must have public function such as E->f(i,x,y),
      where i is the index of the function to evaluate, x is the time and
	  y is a point such as y(x), returns values of differential equation i)
	  
   1- construct the solver :    solver = new RungeKutta<objet>(int);   //the integer is the dimension of x
   2- set the solver :    solver->set(unit, y0, x0, xn);   //unit is usually the pointer *this, y0 are the initial conditions, and x0 and xn is the time interval
   3- launch the solver : bool = solver->run();   //will return true is success, false if the solver failed????????????????????????????
   4- delete the solver : delete solver;
