This chapter describes functions for solving ordinary differential equation (ODE) initial value problems. The library provides a variety of low-level methods, such as Runge-Kutta and Bulirsch-Stoer routines, and higher-level components for adaptive step-size control. The components can be combined by the user to achieve the desired solution, with full access to any intermediate steps.
These functions are declared in the header file `gsl_odeiv.h'.
