Maxima Function
ieqn (ie, unk, tech, n, guess)
inteqn
is a package for solving integral equations.
load ("inteqn")
loads this package.
ie is the integral equation; unk is the unknown function; tech is the
technique to be tried from those given above (tech = first
means: try
the first technique which finds a solution; tech = all
means: try all
applicable techniques); n is the maximum number of terms to take for
taylor
, neumann
, firstkindseries
, or fredseries
(it is also the
maximum depth of recursion for the differentiation method); guess is
the initial guess for neumann
or firstkindseries
.
Default values for the 2nd thru 5th parameters are:
unk: p(x)
, where p is the first function encountered in an integrand
which is unknown to Maxima and x is the variable which occurs as an
argument to the first occurrence of p found outside of an integral in
the case of secondkind
equations, or is the only other variable
besides the variable of integration in firstkind
equations. If the
attempt to search for x fails, the user will be asked to supply the
independent variable.
tech: first
n: 1
guess: none
which will cause neumann
and firstkindseries
to use
f(x)
as an initial guess.
