Differential Equations

A differential equation is an equation that involves the derivatives of


a function as well as the function itself. It is used to describe
relationships between a function and its derivatives. Differential
equations are widely used in various fields, including mathematics,
physics, engineering, and economics .

There are different types of differential equations, such as ordinary


differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations
(PDEs). ODEs involve derivatives with respect to a single independent
variable, while PDEs involve derivatives with respect to multiple
independent variables.

Solving differential equations can be a complex task and often


requires advanced mathematical techniques. There are various
methods for solving differential equations, including analytical
methods and numerical methods. Analytical methods involve finding
exact solutions using techniques such as separation of variables,
integrating factors, and power series expansions. Numerical methods
involve approximating solutions using computational algorithms.
