Abstract

In this paper, we try to approach chasos with numerical method. After investigating nonlinear dynamcis (chaos) theory, we introduce Lyapunov exponent as chaos\`s index. To look into the existence of chaos in 2-dimensional difference equation we computes Lypunov exponent and examine the various behaviors of solutions by difurcation map.
