Symbolic differential equation solver possible for ti84?
« on: June 06, 2014, 12:18:02 pm »
Could it be possible to code a symbolic ordinary differential equation solver for the TI-84 using symbolic and prettyprint?
Like y(x)'=y(x) outputs y(x)=Ce^x

Technically everything is possible. Yes, you can even write a PS4 emulator in TI BASIC. :trollface:

I can? :o
Well, i guess if i don't need to integrate symbolically (which is kinda the only thing i can't do) i can make an ODE solver right?

Yeah, with some clever string parser you can but it will be slow.

I don't know much about diffeqs, but I'd imagine that's at least on the difficulty level of a symbolic integration utility.

Something that might help is to look at the code for one of the symbolic differentiation programs out there.

Surprisingly, you don't need symbolic integration for solving every diffequ.
And they're not that much harder to solve than integrating.
