Introduction to Differential Equations

Adapted for Math 204 at the University of Victoria

Abstract

This book consists of an introduction to Differential Equations, primarily focusing on Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). It is used specifically in Math 204 at the University of Victoria, but covers a fairly typical one-semester introductory course for students who have taken Calculus.

This book is free and open source, which means that anyone can modify the source code for this book, please see the Colophon for more information. Specicfically, this version of the book, maintained by Trefor Bazett at the University of Victoria, has been forked from the original text by Jiří Lebl.⁶
