[ODE] Good reference for solving LCP's?

I realize it's a generic response, but MathWorld is an excellent
jump-off point for anything and everything math related.  Wikipedia is
a close second, once you have a point of reference to start from.

I'd say start with: RK4 (Runge-Kutta)

... or more generally, numerical solutions to Ordinary Differential
Equations (or ODE's, hence the name).  I'd suggest a textbook about
Numerical Analysis period, but... mine is terrible, and everyone else
I know has a terrible one too.  If you find a decent one, let me know,
mine is a glorified paper-weight occasionally useful in holding down
my solid gold class notes.
