(#s 5-7) Higher order ODEs: Choose three (3) ONLY from numbers 11-15 in here.
(#8) Machine exercise: Check out the ODE solver in SCILAB. Explain how it is used to solve ODEs. Give an example of a simple ODE. Solve it using the ODE solver. Also do manual computation to solve the same problem. Compare the results. Are they the same? If not, why do you think so?
