## Class template default_error_checker

boost::numeric::odeint::default_error_checker — The default error checker to be used with Runge-Kutta error steppers.

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/numeric/odeint/stepper/controlled_runge_kutta.hpp>

    template<typename Value, typename Algebra, typename Operations>
    class default_error_checker {
    public:
      // types
      typedef Value      value_type;
      typedef Algebra    algebra_type;
      typedef Operations operations_type;

      // public member functions
      default_error_checker(value_type = static_cast< value_type >(1.0e-6),
                            value_type = static_cast< value_type >(1.0e-6),
                            value_type = static_cast< value_type >(1),
                            value_type = static_cast< value_type >(1));
      template<typename State, typename Deriv, typename Err, typename Time>
        value_type error(const State &, const Deriv &, Err &, Time) const;
      template<typename State, typename Deriv, typename Err, typename Time>
        value_type error(algebra_type &, const State &, const Deriv &, Err &,
                         Time) const;
    };

## Description

This class provides the default mechanism to compare the error estimates reported by Runge-Kutta error steppers with user defined error bounds. It is used by the controlled_runge_kutta steppers.

### Template Parameters

1.     typename Value

   The value type.

2.     typename Algebra

   The algebra type.

3.     typename Operations

   The operations type.
