Jan 5, 2019 at 19:13 comment added Somos I am curious. How did you get from your DDE to $\,f''(x)+f(x) \approx 0\,$ since you want $\,f(x) \approx \sin x\,$ for large $x$? If you meant $\,f(x+2\pi)\,$ instead of $\,f(x+1)\,$ that would make sense.
Jan 2, 2019 at 12:46 comment added Sina That is what I meant by ``history''; in fact that is the only way NDSolve can integrate a DDE. Still if you set up the history at t>=0 and integrate from zero, you will get a different answer from a history at t>=1 which is integrated from t=1. And that is my problem, because how close to infinity is close enough? how do I know I can trust the result.

Jan 2, 2019 at 9:34 comment added Ulrich Neumann In the documentation of NDSolveValue I found an example which might help(NDSolveValue[{x'[t] == x[t] (x[t - Pi] - x'[t - 1]), x[t /; t <= 0] == Cos[t]}, x, {t, 0, 8}]): Instead of initial conditions try f[t /; t >= 0] == Sin[t]
Jan 2, 2019 at 2:34 comment added Somos Ah, yes. I should have mentioned that I don't think NDSolve[] is going to help.

Jan 2, 2019 at 2:22 comment added Sina Thanks Somos, but my question is how to use NDSolve to handle this problem.
Jan 2, 2019 at 2:06 comment added Somos Plase read Math Stackexchange question 2765086 "Writing the recursive as explicit" and its answers for ideas. Also see [MSE question 2245492] (math.stackexchange.com/q/2245492) "Continuous recursive iteration" for $\,f'(x)=f(x-1).$
