Solving Exact ODEs
|
Description
|
|
•
|
The general form of the exact ODE is given by:
|
>
|
exact_ode := D[2](C)(x,y(x))*diff(y(x),x)+D[1](C)(x,y(x))=0;
|
| (1) |
|
where C is an arbitrary function of its arguments. See Kamke's book, p. 28. This type of ODE can be solved in a general manner by dsolve, and the infinitesimals can also be determined by symgen.
