This would be to integrate the claimed equation of EGR (Marion and Thornton eq. (7.76)) numerically to find the orbit. The claimed equation is

d power 2 u / d theta squared + u = 1 / alpha + delta u squared

where u = 1 / r and where alpha and delta are constants. It is now known that this cannot give a precessing ellipse, it gives some other kind of orbit.
