Introduction
The 1-D wave propagation problem is used as a test case for studying the dissipation and dispersion errors in a given finite difference scheme.There are a number of schemes which can be used to solve the problem. The usage of a higher order compact stencil with a low storage 4th order Runga Kutta scheme to solve the current problem is discussed.

Consider
The low storage scheme is implemented as follows
