Description:-
Objective of the program is to solve for the steady state voltage distribution in a region 0<x<30, 0<y<30, given that one of the sides of square is excited with a voltage of 45*(x)*(1-x) Volts and all other sides are maintained at 0 Volts. This voltage at the boundary is symmetrical with its maximum value at centre of the boundary namely x=15. At any iteration, the value of voltage is updated as average of voltages of 4 nearest neighbors, until between consecutive iterations, the error is less than 0.01 V.
