19. Let `y=ytext[(]xtext[)]` be a function defined implicitly by the equation `sin x cos y=y`. Note that `text[(]0,0text[)]` satisfies the equation, so, specifically, we take `ytext[(]xtext[)]` to be the solution of the equation that passes through the origin.

    2. With a step size of `Delta x=0.1`, use Euler's Method to find approximate values of `y` on the interval `[0,1]`. Plot the corresponding points — you may use your graphing calculator or a computer algebra tool. Note: Even though we did not start with a differential equation defining y, you created one in part (a), and we have an initial value as well.
    3. Test the accuracy of your Euler solution by substituting `x=1` and `y=ytext[(]1text[)]` (as best you know it) into the equation `sin x cos y=y`. How close is the left-hand side to the right-hand side?
    4. Repeat parts (b) and (c) with a step size of `Delta x=0.01`.
