DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
Differential Equation is an equation that contains one or more terms
involving derivatives of one variable (the dependent variable, y) with
respect to another variable (the independent variable, x).
Differential Equation is an equation with a function and one or
more of its derivatives
