Second-Order PDEs (Mathematica Tutorial)

The general form of a linear second-order PDE is Here uu(x,y), and a, b, c, d, e, f, and g are functions of x and y only—they do not depend on u. If g0, the equation is ...

Blocks and Local Values (Mathematica Tutorial)

Modules in Mathematica allow you to treat the names of variables as local. Sometimes, however, you want the names to be global, but values to be local. You can do this in ...
