“…However, most of the mentioned type delay equations have not analytical and numerical solutions; therefore, numerical methods are required to obtain approximate solutions. For this purpose, by means of the matrix method based on collocation points which have been given by Sezer and coworkers [2,6,16,17,21,26,29,36], we develop a novel matrix technique to find the approximate solution of Eq. 1 under the initial condition yðaÞ ¼ k in the truncated Morgan-Voyce series form…”
