here are some educational links (I hope):
1. http://numericalmethods.eng.usf.edu/siteindex.html
2. http://www.amara.com/papers/nbody.html
3. http://www.ap.univie.ac.at/users/ves/cp0102/dx/node107.html
The first is a link to Univ. Southern Florida's engineering page, which contains a good explaination of how to do division, without doing division. The explaination is listed as an example of a "Physical Problem" for CS Engineers in (nonlinear?) Differential Equations (the first topic, not interpolation). The third link is attached to the university of Wien in Germany, so it is probably reliable.
The second is an individual's webpage, and it contains brief explainations for different ways of doing molecular dynamics. Probably not directly useful, but informative.
