The Student[ODEs][ReduceOrder] subpackage contains a number of commands for reducing the order of ordinary differential equations, and for each such command there is an option to attempt to use this reduction of order to solve the ODE.

Each command in the Student[ODEs][ReduceOrder] subpackage can be accessed by using either the long form or the short form of the command name in the command calling sequence.

The long form, Student[ODEs][ReduceOrder]:-command or Student:-ODEs:-ReduceOrder:-command, is always available. The short form can be used after loading the package.

The Maple Command Completion facility is helpful for entering the names of Student package commands.

The subpackage Student[ODEs][ReduceOrder] consists of commands for reducing the order of ODEs using three possible methods:

To display the help page for a particular Student[ODEs][ReduceOrder] command, see Getting Help with a Command in a Package.

The Student[ODEs][ReduceOrder] package was introduced in Maple 2021.
