Abstract
Lyapunov exponents play a significant part in revealing and quantifying chaos, which occurs in many areas of science and technology. The purpose of this study was to approximate the Lyapunov exponents for discrete dynamical systems and to present it as a quantifier for inferring and detecting the existence of chaos in those discrete dynamical systems. Finally, the approximation of the Lyapunov exponents for the discrete dynamical system was implemented using the Matlab code listed in the Appendix.
