- Read
- Book: Chapter 2, Sections 2 and 3.
- Manual: Chapter 3, pp 28 -- 35.
- Exercises:
- Book:

- Manual:
- Chapter 2: #3, 4, 8.
- Chapter 3: #2, 6.
- In
several of the exercises from the book you are asked to plot a
solution. You can do this in MATLAB by either plotting the solution
directly or by using
dfield6.
You are encouraged to work on other exercises both from the book and
and the manual, especially those which require you to plot
solutions. Using dfield6 for this will give you
experince in visualizing the solutions to differential equations.
