What to learn in the start-up example; generalizations
- Generalize the example to u'(t)=-a(t)u(t) + b(t)
- Present additional methods for the general nonlinear ODE u'=f(u,t) ,
which is either a scalar ODE or a system of ODEs
- How to access professional packages for solving ODEs
- How our model equations like u'=-au arises in a wide range
of phenomena in physics, biology, and finance
