448 Differential Equations with Maple V

we obtain the same solution as that obtained previously using d s o L v e together with the
l a p l a c e option. Note that if we forget to include the l a p l a c e option, the result returned by
d s o I V e is incorrect.

To graph the solution obtained with d s o l v e for various initial conditions, we first name x{t)
and y{t) the results given in G e n_S o I with a s s i g n and then use s e q to form the list of ordered
pairs, named c _ v a I s, consisting of (f,;) for / = - 1 , 0 , and 1 and j = - 1 , 0 , and 1.

c.vals : = [ [ - 1 , - 1 ] , [0, - 1 ] , [1, - 1 ] , [ - 1 , 0 ] , [0,0], [1,0], [ - 1 , 1 ] , [0,1], [1,1]]

The command

t=-4..43)

substitutes x{0) by the first coordinate of the kth ordered pair in the list c _ v a I s and y(0) by the
second coordinate of the fcth ordered pair in the list c _ v a I s.
We now use a f o r loop to graph the nine solutions obtained by replacing x{0) by the first
coordinate of the fcth ordered pair in the list c _ v a I s and y(0) by the second coordinate of
the /cth ordered pair in the list c _ v a l s for = 1, 2 , . . . , 9 and for --4 < ί < 4. The option
n u m p o i n t s = 2 0 0 in the p l o t command instructs Maple to use 200 sample points when
generating each graph, thus helping to assure that the resulting graphs appear smooth.
