Euler's Method check

Hello, I am trying to model a first order ODE using Euler's Method. I have shown the Euler's step in the code below and I wanted somebody to double-check it and see if it is written correctly. All the R,C,L, Ron values are given. Thankx for the help
h = 0.0001; % Adjustable time-step
t = 0:h:0.002;
for i = 1:length(t)-1
switch (switch_state)
case 1
k11 = x2(i)*1/L - x1(i)*1/(R*C);
k12 = x2(i)*-Ron/L - x1(i)*1/L + Vi*1/L;
otherwise
k11 = x2(i)*1/L - x1(i)*1/(R*C);
k12 = x2(i)*-Ron/L - x1(i)*1/L;
end
x1(i+1) = x1(i) + h*k11;
x2(i+1) = x2(i) + h*k12;
end
plot(t,x1)
plot(t,x2)

You've implemented euler's method correctly. Whether or not you have calculated k11 and k12 correctly, and chosen sensible values for h, and LCR is another question.
