Dsolve

Dsolve is a function in the Wolfram Language, primarily used for solving differential equations. It can handle a wide range of ordinary and partial differential equations, both linear and nonlinear. Dsolve attempts to find an explicit or implicit solution in terms of the independent variables.

The basic syntax for Dsolve involves specifying the equations to be solved and the variables to solve for. For example, Dsolve[eqn, y[x], x] will attempt to solve the differential equation 'eqn' for the function 'y[x]' in terms of 'x'. Dsolve can also solve systems of differential equations.

Beyond basic symbolic solutions, Dsolve has capabilities for numerical solutions when analytical solutions are not feasible or are not the desired output. It can also incorporate initial or boundary conditions to find particular solutions rather than general ones. The function is a powerful tool for mathematicians, physicists, engineers, and anyone working with mathematical models that involve rates of change. Its ability to handle diverse equation types and provide both symbolic and numerical results makes it a cornerstone of symbolic computation for differential equations.
