Numerical Analysis is a branch of mathematics which deals with the study of approximation techniques for solving problems by taking into account the possible errors, which may occur due to our approximation. Numerical methods is a set of procedures done to find the solution of a problem together with error estimates. In this paper we deal with the numerical methods used in finding solutions of differential equation. Here we consider first order differential equation with initial condition . And most importantly we have used the software MATLAB (Matrices Laboratory). It is a fourth generation programming language and numerical analysis environment. By analyzing numerical methods using in finding solutions of differential equation we arrive at a conclusion by finding out the most efficient method among the ones considered.
