Hello

I am really bogged down now and need some guidance.

I am trying to follow an Open University Maths course but I dont have 
access to MathCad. I can see on paper a graph created in mathcad using the 
eulers_method to graph a direcrion/gradient field and solution curve for 
the function f(x,y)=e^cos(x) -1.  I just cannot achieve this using 
sagemath.  I am trying

eulers_method(e^cos(x)-1,0,0,1/10,5,algorithm="none")

which does not work and i am struggling can someone point me in the right 
direction.

Thanks in Advance

Dan
