Direction fields and SAGE: handout
February 12, 2024
  • Lecture 15            Lecture 15 with answers (4 x page format)
  • YouTube Playlist with videos for Lecture 15
  • Sage is a free open-source mathematics software system that is useful to produce, for our purposes,
    direction fields of differential equations of the first order. In particular, the SageMathCell project is
    an easy-to-use web interface. Just access the website https://sagecell.sagemath.org and type
    some Sage codes in the provided box and then press Evaluate.
    For example, the Sage codes to produce the direction field of the DE   dy/dx= x^2*y^2   are:
        x,y=var('x,y')
        plot_slope_field(x^2*y^2,(x,-5,5),(y,-10,10), headaxislength=3, headlength=3)
