//  Helix a-la-Explicity Euler: x_1 = x_0 + helix(h)
//   with helix(h) being a helix piece of length h
//   simplest approach for solving linear differential equations.
//  Take the current derivative and add it to the current position.
//
//  As the field is assumed constant, an error is not calculated.
